It’s easy to spot what others are doing wrong. But when conflict arises, Jesus invites us to do something radically different: Look inward first.

In this thought-provoking message, Pastor Justin Larkin challenges us to lay down the magnifying glass and pick up the mirror — because self-awareness is the first step to real peace. If you’ve ever wrestled with anger, judgment, or relational tension, this sermon will help you:

• Identify your part in the conflict

• Use prayer, Scripture, and community to examine your heart See others clearly — through the lens of grace

Ready to stop criticizing and start healing?

Faith Reminders to Carry Forward: ✅ Don’t confront someone else’s sin while ignoring your own.

✅ Before you talk to them, talk to Him.

✅ When you remove the plank from your own eye, you see people with compassion — not condemnation.

✅ God’s Word and godly community are mirrors that reveal what pride tries to hide.

✅ The world doesn’t need more critics — it needs more Christ-followers who see clearly.
