Can I meet His Gaze? (Season 3 episode 6)

In this episode Iffa Willis is joined by Pippa Baker and Anna Bailey as we ask: “can we meet His gaze?” Scripture Luke 22: 54-62 Image In our conversation we reflected on two images: Denial of Peter by Carl Bloch https://moastore.byu.edu/product/the-denial-of-peter/ and Christ of St John of the Cross by Salvador Dali https://www.dalipaintings.com/christ-of-saint-john-of-the-cross.jsp Journaling Prompts PAUSE to GAZE Have a look at the two images linked in today’s show notes. Gaze upon them as you pray. What do you see? What do you notice? If you were to be painted into the scenes, where would you be? GAZED UPON Can you recall times when you have felt guilt or shame and have not been able to look someone in the eye? Who in your life has gazed on you and loved you even when they know the truth about your weaknesses and failings? GAZING ON THE WORD Spend some time reflecting on the accounts from Holy Week that you have heard in the podcast today (Luke 22: 54-62 and John 19:25).
