Why are Christians so judgy? Why do some churches feel more like courtrooms than communities? Why does religion sometimes amplify shame instead of offering healing?

In this episode, we take a fresh look at Jesus' words in Matthew 7:1–12, "Do not judge so that you will not be judged." But instead of pulling that verse out as a soundbite, we explore the deeper kingdom vision behind it. Jesus wasn't banning discernment, He was calling us to humility, mercy, and transformation.

What if the church was known more for grace than judgment? What if Christians led with compassion rather than condemnation?

Join us as we walk through the words of Jesus, not to shame the church, but to rediscover the radical, mercy-shaped life He invites us into.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
