It takes a great deal of awareness to realize what’s at work when we like or dislike people.

It’s so easy to jump to conclusions about people based on surface factors but you’re right. Those assumptions are often wrong, and making them is often lazy and even hurtful. Your last words really resonate: “When possible, don’t pass judgment at all.”

This series is teaching me so much about biases that I didn’t know existed; some of which have poked their ugly noses into my life.

I had known about the halo effect but never looked into it in depth. Thank you for putting it into perspective for me. Blessings.

Have recently been reading the story of God choosing David. Love that scripture!

I see this on a daily basis. Drawing conclusion about someone or a group of people based on their appearance. I have seen it in the Christian world we we judge someone’s holiness based on their outward abelites. I often go back to your key verse, remembering how Jesse chose not to present his ruddy little boy to the prophet but God saw his heart. I’m thankful that God does not look at my external features but He really knows me. Thank you for this.

I love how clearly you explained it and brought Jesus into the equation. You sum up the bottom line well, “And when possible, don’t pass judgment at all, especially not on outward appearances.” Thanks for another great read!

It’s something we need to be mindful of and steer clear as best we can.
Blessings, Lisa!
