Seeing as Jesus sees: How one simple question can change your life

Life and relationships can sometimes feel complicated and frustrating, but with the right perspective, everything changes. So, what if we saw the world and our circumstances through the eyes of Jesus? Instead of anger, we experience freedom. Instead of judgment, we discover compassion. And instead of fear, we grab ahold of victory.

Pastor Alan Wright, the author of Seeing as Jesus Sees: How a New Perspective Can Defeat the Darkness and Awaken Joy, believes that by asking a simple question. We can begin to see everything from the eyes of Jesus and His grandeur, more compassionate perspective. 

In this episode, Pastor Alan and I talk about How we can remove the spiritual blinders that cloud our vision and learn to see as Jesus sees, how pausing, connecting, and looking is a powerful concept for refocusing your perspective beyond what you see, and how the focus from doing to seeing is the transformation our world needs. 

Prepare to experience transformation in your heart as Pastor Alan provides vivid examples of shifting perspectives and how one question can change not only your sight but also your understanding of God’s love for you and the world.
