Faith gives us the courage to believe that God can redeem what dysfunction damaged.

Main message: The preacher condemns selective apathy that protects abusers (especially within families) and calls the church to defend and advocate for vulnerable children, urging believers to confront evil with faith and trust in God's redemption and protection.

Key points:

• Critiques people who will fight outsiders but ignore or defend abusive family members, thereby harming victims.
• Strong rebuke ("woe unto you") for enabling or minimizing ongoing abuse, even when the perpetrator is a familiar relative.
• The Holy Spirit is restoring reverence and the fear of the Lord, prompting the church to act righteously.
• Scripture and biblical examples show a consistent command to protect the least and defend the vulnerable.
• Believers must "fight with faith," trusting God can redeem painful histories (example invoked: Bathsheba/Tamar/Amnon narrative) and restore those harmed.
• Assurance that when earthly parents fail, the Lord will uphold and defend the fatherless.

Scriptures mentioned: Psalm 27:10
