Ep 127: Do-It-Yourself Log Removal (GH)

What does it mean to judge others as a Christian? In this Greenhouse episode, Brian, Handsome Kyle, and Doc continue the conversation from Episode 126 on Jesus as judge. Judgment is unavoidable. We judge situations, actions, ideas, motives, culture, and one another every day. The deeper question is whether our judgment reflects the heart of Jesus. The conversation begins by revisiting the larger Soil & Roots journey: the Great Omission, deep discipleship, the Discipleship Dilemma, the Formation Gap, the Forgotten Kingdom, and Season 6’s exploration of Jesus as the object of our formation. If we are becoming more like Jesus, then we must learn not only to love like Him, but also to judge like Him. Brian, Handsome Kyle, and Doc wrestle with why the word “judgment” often feels negative, why some forms of modern Christianity come across like the sin police, and why judgment apart from relationship can become harmful. Jesus judges with perfect knowledge of the heart. We do not. That means humility, self-examination, patience, and relational attunement are essential.
