O'Peniel Behind the Fans: -No More Cover Ups

In O Peniel Behind the Fans people use hand fans at church to cover up their indescretions. The preacher himself seems to always go out of his way to discover any hidden secrets about people around town. And he has no problem blatantly exposing these secrets directly to that person; while yet still letting others know he knows of those indiscretions in his unsympathetic sermons. He even unexpectedly preached about himself in one of his sermons. But yet hes still so quick to point out other peoples wrongdoings. This makes you wonder if hes unblemished as well. One person though seems to have figured that out early on but its not Rhyah. Rhyah the young girl portrayed as the books witty narrator demonstrates that life is full of mishaps and issues and that they are simply a part of life. Thus we all make mistakes! She too has created a problematic secret of her own. One of which she has hid for several months. Its also one which causes immense frustration and shame upon people. But she makes a grand revision to her issue by directly confronting it; allowing everyone to know that things like this may walk up on us but they do not have to overtake our lives. Additionally the books theme is given from a (somewhat) biblical perspective that seems to enhance the value of it.
