Beyond Condemnation: The Art of Restorative Judgment | Ep. 109

How goes it everyone? Happy 2025. I’m making some small changes to the show. I’m dropping video and focusing fully on writing and audio. I will be dedicating my focus to Substack and growing a community there. God is growing in the world and He is calling many of us.

Biblical times…

In this episode of Order Within, I reflect on the nuances of judgment within Christianity, exploring how to discern between corrective and condemning judgment. Using scriptures from Matthew, John, Corinthians, and James, I discuss Jesus' teachings on proper judgment, the importance of self-reflection, and handling judgment within the church.

I urge you to approach judgment with humility, focusing on love and restoration rather than condemnation. The episode concludes with a prayer for wisdom, right judgment, and righteousness in serving God and helping others find compassion and healing.
