  Aug 5, 202642 minS11

  Do you want to be free of body-shape judging? In this episode of the Live Like It's True Podcast, Shannon Popkin and Susie Renzema examine why we judge bodies—our own and others'—and how God's mercy frees us from shame, comparison, and criticism.

  (Part 6) The Two Doors & the Merciful Judge: The Fiery Door

  Jun 29, 202621 minS11

  Here's part six of a fictional story I wrote called The Two Doors and the Merciful Judge. It's an allegory that serves as a companion to Kinda Judgy : Finding Mercy for Myself and Others in Six Stories of the Bible —my new book releasing with Moody Publishers!! (Order your copy here .) Through the imaginative setting of the Grand Courtroom of the World, revisit the same six Bible stories featured in the book—Noah, Rahab, Jonah, the sinful woman, the blind man, and the criminal on the cross—and encounter the same unchanging Judge of All. My hope is that this allegory will help you see more clearly—and love more deeply—the Judge who holds the Final Gavel. Order Kinda Judgy Replay the Girls' Night Celebration! How Judgy Are You?
