Addressing Othering and the Problem of Self-Righteousness

In his message at TGC Netherlands 2023, Michael Keller explores the concept of "othering," using the Pharisee from a Gospel of Luke parable as an example of self-centeredness and superiority. Keller contends that othering is a universal issue and affects relationships when people overly focus on themselves. Keller urges the importance of introspection and a shift towards a more compassionate and understanding mindset to overcome the destructive nature of othering.

Keller's message concludes by urging the audience to embrace their identity as beloved by God, transcending other labels, and highlighting the transformative power of God's love to end the practice of "othering."
