Pastor Stephen Mizell, Pastor Jay Rivenbark, and Pastor Alyssa Bream open Romans 2, exploring why we judge others' sins to excuse our own, how God's patience is meant to lead us to repentance, and how our hypocrisy shapes the world's view of God.

Scripture Focus: Romans 2:1-24 - Paul confronts the self-righteous, warning that knowing the law doesn't exempt anyone from its standard.

In This Episode:

Why we deflect from our own sin by pointing at others
"Big rock" sins vs. quieter internal sins like pride and envy
Mistaking God's patience for approval
How hypocrisy in leaders damages God's reputation

Key Quote: "The kindness is meant to draw us into God... we don't think of God's kindness as something to become comfortable with."
