How do you experience beauty, and how does it move you? God presents to us the gift of the beauty of the world. Beauty is usually in the eye of the beholder; we all experience and see beauty differently. But at the same time, it is commonly an experience of awe and wonder before the other or the world. We are invited to be more open to the beautiful things in our lives, be moved by different expressions of beauty, and allow our hearts to be expanded to acknowledge what’s truly beautiful through our lenses and others as well.
In this episode, we will talk about the gift of beauty, how we can see it differently, and how we can be more open to how beauty calls us to love and communion.

Jesus’s Favorite Things: Lowliness
What does lowliness mean to you and God? The experience of lowliness can sometimes be what we dislike about ourselves.
