Good news: You don’t have to live for your critics anymore.

John Ortberg looks ahead to Lent and invites us into a bold, freeing experiment: giving up condemnation altogether; the kind we receive, the kind we rehearse in our own heads, and the kind we quietly pass along to others. Drawing from the apostle Paul, John explores the reality that we all live with three critics:

- Other people
- Ourselves
- And God

The surprising twist? Freedom doesn’t come from silencing the first two, it comes from a category shift in how we understand the third.
