What if God’s judgment was never against you - but for you? 

In this episode of Two Pastors and a Mic, Cory and Channock unpack one of the most misunderstood topics in Christianity: God’s judgment and wrath. Drawing from Cory’s eBook How to Make Sense of God’s Judgment and Wrath, they explore how God’s justice isn’t retribution - it’s restoration.

You’ll hear:
⚖️ How an adoption story reframed Cory’s entire view of judgment
👁️ Why God’s judgment rescues rather than ruins
🔥 How His wrath burns away lies, not people
🏠 The difference between the courtroom of fear and the living room of love
🕊️ Why perfect love really does cast out fear
💬 Key quotes from Peter Hiett, C. Baxter Krueger, and more that will shift your lens forever

This conversation will help you release fear, embrace freedom, and rediscover God as a loving Father whose judgment is always in your favor.
