“Quit forcing your kids to believe in God.” That was the feedback best-selling author Jason Wright received on one of his latest articles. Surprised and a bit hurt, Wright found many readers agreed.

I’m sitting at my desk early one morning working away when an email arrives. Because of the specific address it’s sent to, I know before even opening it that it’s feedback on one my weekly columns.
What I don’t yet know is how long I’ll end up thinking about it.
It happens. I take heat from passionate readers on occasion; it’s part of the gig. Although my columns are rarely controversial, they often touch on faith, and anything I publish on religion tends to lure the opinionated to the pulpit.
I get it.
