Frida Ghitis: Bishop Fred Henry died last week at the age of failing health.

She says he often spoke in a way not in line with those in power, out of sync with the megaphones of social media and fashionable opinion.

Bishop Fred took aim at politicians who supported same-sex marriage and abortion.

Ghitis says he stood his ground in an age when conviction is in short supply, when courage is scarce.
