This week, Tim Cole from Waypoint Church Partners challenges us to confront our tendency to judge others based on appearances. The book of James, particularly chapter 2, serves as our guide, reminding us that showing favoritism is not only wrong but also contradicts the very essence of Christ's teachings. We're encouraged to 'stop it' - to consciously resist the urge to discriminate. The story of Samuel anointing David as king reinforces this lesson, showing us that while humans look at outward appearances, God looks at the heart. This insight invites us to see others as God sees them, embracing a more inclusive and compassionate approach in our faith communities. The message concludes with a poignant reminder through communion that we're all equal recipients of God's grace, having been granted access to His presence not through our own merit, but through Christ's sacrifice.
