What if the antidote to condemnation isn’t trying harder to be nice… but learning to know yourself?
In this conversation, John Ortberg talks with philosopher Jim Taylor about intellectual virtue — qualities like humility, courage, and self-knowledge that help us pursue truth and love people well.
Jesus warned against condemning judgment, but he also invited us to remove the log in our own eye. The path forward begins with honest self-examination and a simple prayer:
“Search me, O God, and know my heart.”
Because when we grow in self-knowledge, condemnation loses its grip.
