The intention-vs-impact quote
- Is your intention really irrelevant if your impact is harmful?
A host addressed as Mike brings a viral Twitter quote to the docket — "for your information, your intention is irrelevant if your impact is harmful. Don't use your intention to dismiss someone who tells you they're hurt by something you did. Apologize, learn, and commit to doing better" — read aloud twice and given a fair shake. The hosts argue harm defined only by how it feels would make telling a drunk he needs to quit drinking impossible, and counter that God cares where the heart is at: intention actually matters to God.
