The Truth About Pharisee-Types & How to Break Free | Libby VanSolkema | Luke 6
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Have you been secretly judging some other mom, your sister, a neighbor or friend? Are you stuck in a constant rule-keeping mindset? Are you a judgy Pharisee-type who'd like to break free?
My friend and pastor's wife Libby VanSolkema describes herself as a "Recovering Pharisee" and I can relate. In our conversation about Luke 6, we're exploring Jesus’ surprising response to the Pharisees after the disciples pluck grain on the Sabbath, Let's flip on the lights and expose our own legalism which is the first step to freedom and transformation.
If you're tired of being judged—or even more tired of being so judgy, grab a copy of my new book with Moody Publishers: Kinda Judgy: Finding Mercy for Myself and Others in Six Stories of the Bible. As we step into the stories of Noah, Rahab, Jonah and others, we'll not only get biblical clarity on judgment and mercy, we'll encounter the One who melts our judgy hearts with His lavish mercy. Ready to lay down your gavel? Come find mercy for yourself and others in this six week study.
