Hey Dad... Can You Talk?10 | Hey Dad… Let’s Talk About Seeing Others the Way God Sees ThemIf we don’t feel worthy of God’s love, of God’s generosity-if we don’t see ourselves the way God sees us, we will never be able to see others the way He sees them. And treating others the way God treats us is really what it’s all about, wouldn’t you agree? It’s the Golden Rule and most people would say “do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” But what does that mean for you and me? How can we live out the Golden Rule in our everyday lives? And how can we model thi...

Hey Dad... Can You Talk?08 | Hey Dad... Let's Talk About Seeing Ourselves the Way God Sees UsIn a world full of filtered photos and targeted ads, how can we really see ourselves how God sees us? We are prone to look in the mirror and just see what everyone else sees- to see the things we think are wrong or the things we think need fixing.
