TEACHING SERIES: Distinct Sessions 4: Remove the Plank BY:  Tim Chilvers DATE:  Sunday 29th January 2023 BIBLE PASSAGES: James | Chapter 2 | Verses 1-13 EXCERPT: Christians are called to be people who love not to judge. A recent study of people aged 16-29 in the United States found that 90% considered Christians to be judgmental people and for many this was a barrier to them attending churches or exploring the Christian faith further. How can we be people who show radical love to all, knowing that we have a judge who is above all but who loved us so much that he sent his son to die for every one of us? Welcome: What's true of Riverside Church when we meet together in-person is true of us online. We are on a journey together to help people get to know Jesus and grow as his followers across Birmingham and beyond. Riverside is a church made up of people from a diversity of backgrounds and experiences all with one thing in common; our discovery of God and His amazing love. We hope you will feel at home among us and that you will find our weekly services, events and groups welcoming and relevant to your life. Whoever you are, whatever you believe, you're so welcome in this community.
