Mercy Over Judgment

God doesn’t play favorites—and neither should we. In this message from James 2, we explore how favoritism misrepresents the heart of God, violates the command to love our neighbor, and stands in direct conflict with the law of liberty we've received in Christ. We’ll define justice, mercy, and grace from a biblical perspective and confront the subtle ways we show partiality in our lives, churches, and communities. This is a call to a gospel-shaped ethic where mercy triumphs over judgment, and where our faith is proved genuine through how we treat others—especially those we’re tempted to overlook.
