Jesus values people. The Gospels share story after story in which He restores, comforts, transforms, and challenges people in an intimate, individual way. Seeing the Heart of Christ tells the stories of twelve personal interactions Jesus had with hurting people and how He dramatically changed their lives. By exploring the rich texture of these stories, you’ll see the greatness of Christ’s love, as well as your deep need for Him. In response to His example of compassion and mercy, you can’t help but be motivated to love and care for others.

Our world seems to be unraveling. While we know God is in control, His ways are mysterious and counterintuitive. We simply don’t understand His methods. And that shouldn’t really surprise us. He has told us, “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways” (Isaiah 55:8). The unpredictability of God does not need to be threatening or fear-inducing, however… It’s actually good news! God’s surprising nature is a reminder that His wisdom is eternal and His purposes are perfect.
