Have you ever wondered whether the church is a safe place for people with messy stories? Do some sins seem more forgivable than others?

Julie* joins Shannon to share the story behind the chapter featured in Kinda Judgy. She opens up about her unplanned pregnancy, the shame she experienced, the day she stood before her church to read a public confession, and how she eventually discovered that God's mercy was far greater than her guilt.

Together, they look at Jesus's encounters with Rahab and the sinful woman at Simon's table, discovering how His mercy transforms both those who feel judged and those who are tempted to judge.

*Not her real name.
