Encore: Is It Judgmental to Point Out Sin?

“The church is too judgmental… I’m done with it.”

Starting with the exit of young people from the church, Scott and Shawn take a close look at the criticism. It’s pretty common to hear young people express disdain for the judgments the church brings down on their generation. Is the church really too judgmental? Does the church even have a role in judging?

Scott and Shawn launch into the discussion by taking us through a better understanding of shifts happening in our culture; from belief to skepticism. Then they unravel some of the theological drift happening in churches. The Greek word we translate to mean “judge” had a different meaning in the original.

To sum it all up, they go back to Jesus, looking at what he tells his disciples to do. To judge or not to judge… that is the question. You might be caught in the judgment cycle or feel the tension of judgment and critique. Watch now… and let us know what you think.
