Focusing My Gaze: Beholding the Upward, Inward, Outward Mission of Jesus

Jesus came to give His followers abundant life. It is a life filled with meaning, purpose, wonder, and beauty. Jesus assures us that if we will seek first His kingdom and righteousness, we will not only find those things, but all the other things we so desperately seek as well.

The prophet Isaiah was allowed to see the Lord in all His glory. As we unpack this marvelous story of God’s grace, we will discover how the focus of Isaiah’s gaze truly determined the state of his being. Isaiah looked in four different ways and discovered more about the Lord, himself, and his purpose in life in the process. They are essential in the life of anyone who wants to experience the abundant life that can only be found in Jesus.

We look up—and see the glory of God

We look inward—and see ourselves as we truly are

We look outward—and see the grace of God

We look around—and see the mission of God and our place in it

Join us in this journey as we see how these four looks have played out in the lives of men and women of faith, from biblical times until today, and how they are still transforming the lives of those who choose to focus their gaze.
