Digital Garden Civility

Porching And Closing

Alexandra Hudson explains that civility isn’t about being polite—it’s about recognizing the inherent dignity of others, even in deep disagreement. She shares how true civility requires moral courage: the willingness to engage in hard conversations, challenge what’s wrong, and still see opponents as equals, while rebuilding trust and connection in the fractured, polarized culture. She calls each of us to make an impact for Christ right where we are, by treating one another with respect.
