Seeing Through the Eyes of Christ - Steve Higginbotham
Teachers
Lesson Summary
The class opened with a brief recap of the third Treasure Valley Men’s Rally and an invitation to share the weekend’s teaching online. Brother Steve Higginbotham introduced the theme of "Seeing Through the Eyes of Christ," emphasizing that a Christ‑centered perspective reshapes how we respond to people and situations. He illustrated the point with personal anecdotes about height, humor, and family experiences, then turned to Scripture, directing listeners to Luke 7. In the passage, a Pharisee invites Jesus to his home, while a known sinner boldly anoints Jesus’s feet with perfume and tears. Steve highlighted how the woman’s humility and compassion contrast with the Pharisee’s self‑righteousness, urging the men to adopt the same compassionate view. The lesson concluded with a call to cultivate Jesus’s empathy in daily life and to plan for future men’s gatherings. Throughout the teaching, Steve underscored the need for men to move beyond surface judgments, to notice the hidden needs around them, and to invite Christ’s love into their homes and relationships. He encouraged participants to continue watching the recorded lessons, to share them on social media, and to apply the “Jesus‑eye” perspective in their families and communities.
