In episode 90 of the Eyes on Jesus Podcast, we sit down with Gary Wilkerson, speaker, author, and president of World Challenge, for an eye-opening conversation on faith, ministry, and seeing Jesus in a new way. Gary shares powerful insights on what’s missing in Western Christianity, the struggles and victories he’s experienced in his own family, and the urgent call to serve the marginalized. We also explore the themes of his latest book, The Jaw-Dropping Beauty of Jesus, and how a clearer view of Christ can radically transform our faith. Whether you’re wrestling with personal challenges, seeking deeper purpose, or longing to encounter Jesus afresh, this episode will challenge and encourage you!
Key Questions to Consider:
- What if we’ve been missing a core aspect of true Christianity all along?
- How do we balance personal ambition with Jesus' call to care for the orphan and widow?
- Have you ever felt like your faith has become routine? What would it take to reignite your awe of Jesus?
- How does God bring redemption even in the most broken family situations?
- What does it mean to not just believe in Jesus but to truly see His beauty?
