Today we begin a new series called Stories That Bring Us Back, exploring the truth that stories often shape us in ways arguments never can. Through the story of Theo, the wisdom of Proverbs, and the example of Jesus, we're reminded that one of the most faithful things we can do is slow down long enough to truly see another person, because every life holds a depth we cannot see from the surface.

As you listen today, consider who God might be inviting you to notice this week, and what could happen if you took the time not only to see them, but to let yourself be truly seen as well.
