I'm not a fan of Joel by any means. But what exactly are we "exposing" here? What you quoted above are some pretty basic Christian principles about trusting God and forgiving your enemies. I don't understand what he did here that needs to be exposed?
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
