Embodied by Grace

Embodied by Grace

Welcome to the Embodied by Grace podcast, where faith meets wellness meets … life. I’m Melissa Rose, and I spent over 20 years (unsuccessfully) seeking fulfillment while immersed in the self-help world. In June 2024 and at 39 years old, it was revealed to me that the missing piece in my life was none other than Jesus Christ. Now I invite you to join vulnerable discussions about living as a woman of faith in today’s crazy world. Together we will explore what it means to be human — but this time through the lens of grace and with the ultimate goal of growing closer to God each and every day.

I believe we can learn so much from each other, but no person's teaching can replace getting into the Bible yourself.

    37. Am I a Judgmental Christian?

    Today Melissa speaks on a topic that has been plaguing her personal life lately: Judgment. She discusses both feeling judged and judging others, and how she thought that becoming a Christian would make her less judgmental -- but now she just finds herself judging others in different ways. She shares some Biblical Truth about how we are to conduct our lives as believers, as well as a reminder that God's grace is sufficient for when we fall short.

For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you. And why do you look at the speck in your brother’s eye, but do not consider the plank in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me remove the speck from your eye’; and look, a plank is in your own eye? Hypocrite! First remove the plank from your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.” ~ Matthew‬ ‭7‬:‭1‬-‭5‬ ‭“There is one Lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy. Who are you to judge another?” ~ James‬ ‭4‬:‭12‬ ‭“You, therefore, have no excuse, you who pass judgment on someone else, for at whatever point you judge another, you are condemning yourself, because you who pass judgment do the same things." ~ Romans‬ ‭2‬:‭1‬ ‭“for all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:” ~ Romans‬ ‭3‬:‭23‬-‭24‬ “And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment;" ~ Philippians‬ ‭1‬:‭9‬ ‭ Romans 14 A Message from Melissa: “Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.” (1 Thess.‬ ‭5‬:‭21‬): Study the Scripture for yourself and remember that I am just a person sharing the Gospel.
