When the Heart Sees

from The Woodlands: A Place for Exploring the Spiritual Life · host Jake Owensby

In this episode, I reflect on Jesus’ healing of the man born blind in John 9 and the deeper question beneath the miracle: how we learn to see. Like cataracts that slowly cloud our vision, the stories we inherit about success, suffering, and worth can shape how we perceive God, ourselves, and others without our realizing it. Jesus challenges a way of seeing that blames and measures, and invites us instead into a vision shaped by mercy and healing. This is a public episode.
