Truism

🧐Perception vs Reality: Why Seeing Isn't Believing


Listen Later

👀 Summary:
What if everything you “knew” was wrong—just because of how you saw it? In this eye-opening episode of Truism, James and Jorge dive into the difference between what we see, what we feel, and what is actually true. From a college professor’s star trick to a misinterpreted altar in Joshua 22, this conversation peels back the layers of assumption, offense, and spiritual blindness to uncover God’s truth underneath it all.

🔍 Key Themes Covered:

  • Perception isn’t always reality—and assumptions can be dangerous

  • Spiritual blindness vs. sensation: Are you feeling God
 but still missing the point?

  • The power of God’s perspective—why only the Creator can define your true worth

  • Real-world examples from Scripture: Gideon, David, the Pharisees, and the altar by the Jordan

  • How to elevate your view through prayer, the Word, and godly leadership

📖 Featured Scripture Highlights:

  • Joshua 22 (Altar misunderstanding)

  • Numbers 13 (Grasshopper complex)

  • Proverbs 21:2, Isaiah 55:8-9, 1 Samuel 16:7

  • Over 20 verses reminding you how God sees YOU (see episode close)

🎯 Takeaway Truism:
You can’t trust your perception until you’ve checked it with the One who wrote the story. Whether it’s a 6, a 9, or a lowercase g—only the Creator knows what it was meant to be.

🙌 Challenge of the Week:
Pray this: “God, help me see myself, others, and this situation the way You do.”
