Let us Be Attentive…So Why Aren’t We?
Thursday, August 13, 2026 34 mins
What if attention is far more than a mental skill? What if it is one of the deepest expressions of love and one of the primary ways God transforms us? In this episode, Michael explores the spiritual significance of attention, From interruptions and distractions to self-obsession, prayer, multitasking, and the modern attention economy, he examines why our inability to be fully present has profound consequences for our relationships with God and others. By recovering the discipline of attentiveness, we begin to see interruptions as opportunities for grace, discover God’s timing within our own plans, and learn how even the ordinary moments of daily life can become encounters with Christ.
