Bible Dig: 2 Corinthians 3:18

from Around the Fire Hosted by Gene Maynard

In this short reflection, we explore 2 Corinthians 3:18 and the practice of contemplative seeing.Paul uses the word katoptrizomenoi—“to behold as in a mirror”—reminding us that spiritual transformation happens when we set our attention fully on Christ. Key Takeaways: * We become what we behold. * Transformation is not about striving harder, but gazing longer. * In Christ, the veil is removed. We now have direct, open access to God’s glory—and that changes us. Reflection Question: What are you gazing at most in your daily life?Is it shaping you into the person you long to become? 💬 Stay Connected If this episode was meaningful to you, consider subscribing to The Compass on Substack.
