Have you noticed hurry shrinking your capacity to love the people right in front of you?
The pace of life makes us reactive — rushing kids out the door, skimming conversations, and missing moments that matter.
What if slowing down wasn't about doing less, but about learning to see as God sees? In this kickoff to our Beholding series, Tanner, Chase, and Sarah explore how hurry distorts our relationships and how attention, presence, and prayer can restore them. Warm, practical, and honest—this conversation helps you trade frantic for faithful with the people you love most.
In this episode, you'll hear:
Why "beholding" (2 Corinthians 5) changes how we see each other
Everyday practices to resist urgency and be present
A simple prayer rhythm to rest in God's lovingkindness
