Episode Synopsis

Why don’t people come to church—really? Pew, Barna, and countless conversations all point to the same struggle: people often feel judged, unwelcome, or overlooked. In this week’s episode, we open James 2 and discover that the early church wrestled with the exact same issues we face today.James writes with pastoral urgency: “My brothers… show no partiality.” In this passage, he exposes a sin we rarely confess but often commit—favoritism—and he calls believers to reflect the heart of Christ in the way we treat others.
