SENSELESS (WK 1)- SEE: WHY THE WAY WE LOOK AT THINGS CHANGES THEM & WHY SCRIPTURE TALKS SO MUCH ABOUT BLINDNESS

South Hills Church- Santa Clarita Campus

I think that many of you would agree that we take our senses for granted, unless we can’t access them. Remember for those who got Covid and lost their sense of smell or taste? Or maybe you couldn’t breath through your nose because of a cold and stuffy nose...know what I’m talking about.

But what if there are all sorts of meaningful experiences you’re missing even when all five senses are functioning? In Scripture, God describes the relationship He wants with humanity as highly sensory. That’s why ancient faith was thoroughly experiential, not purely intellectual.

Could the distance you sometimes feel in your relationship with God (or others) be the result of being out-of-sync with your senses? What would you do about it if that were true? Could learning to more mindfully see, hear, smell, taste, and touch unleash a level of fulfillment you’ve been too distracted to even know existed?
