In this episode, Dr. Shah continues through the book of James, exploring the balance between judgment and mercy. He explains that while believers are called to have discernment and stand for truth, they are also called to show mercy to others.Walking through James’s teaching, Dr. Shah highlights that judgment without mercy reflects a misunderstanding of the grace we’ve received.
