I am going to email the question anyway. Should I?Even if the question does not have the potential to harm your youth pastor, it's still important to consider how it might affect you. If you are concerned that asking a certain question might cause you emotional distress or discomfort, it's best to avoid that topic altogether. Instead, you may want to try discussing a different topic that is more positive or uplifting. Alternatively, if you feel that you need to share something with your youth pastor but you're not comfortable talking about it in person, you can consider writing a letter or sending an email.
