À propos de ce contenu audio

 This episode is part 1 of a 3 part dialogue. We begin with a quiet but dangerous shift happening in our lives and in the world around us: the gradual loss of our ability to truly see one another as human beings. What begins as small, reasonable judgments can slowly turn people into categories, stories into assumptions, and neighbors into abstractions. Through everyday examples and honest reflection, this episode explores how easily fear, certainty, efficiency, and distance can shape the way we perceive others and ourselves. As you well know, this is a podcast centered around faith. So it should come as no surprise that what we're exploring is not a political or social problem, the conversation names it as a spiritual one. At the heart of Christian faith is the incarnation, God choosing to be known through human life. When we forget that truth, we risk losing sight of the image of God in one another. The episode invites listeners to consider what is shaping their vision, how spiritual disciplines help us remain attentive and grounded, and why seeing others as children of God does not require agreement but does require dignity, care, and love. The conversation also emphasizes that accountability and compassion are not opposites. Accountability does not require cruelty, and faithfulness never asks us to erase another person's humanity. As the episode concludes, listeners are invited into a simple yet demanding practice: to remember who they are as beloved children of God and to extend that same recognition to every person they encounter. This kind of seeing may not solve every problem, but it keeps us rooted in love and faithful to who we are created to be.
