How You See People Changes Everything

In today’s episode of the 100xLife Podcast, Rob Dayton hits a nerve in the church. We often think our lack of joy comes from “difficult people.” But Rob says it comes from how you see them. Jesus’ command to “regulate how you see” is not poetic, it is a weapon for daily life.

Rob breaks down the simple tool that reveals whether your heart is full of light or full of darkness. It is not complicated. You either see people as obstacles or as image bearers. What you pick will shape your marriage, your parenting, your work, and your walk with Jesus.

If you know Scripture but still call slow drivers idiots, resent your spouse over the smallest things, or quietly judge people at work, this episode will confront you. It will push you out of self justification and back into the freedom that comes from obeying the still small voice.

You will hear:

• Why Jesus ties your entire inner life to the way you look at people
• The one question that exposes your motives instantly
• How road rage reveals your theology
• Why ignoring the Holy Spirit opens the door to resentment, self pity, and false narratives
• How a piece of dirt on the floor can become a whole story about your spouse
• How picking up trash in a men’s room became God’s training ground for Rob
• A simple way to retrain your sight and choose light instead of darkness

👉 Reflect and Apply
Jesus, where have I turned your image bearers into obstacles, and how are my own stories keeping me in the dark.

Journal Prompt
Ask the Father, “Where have I seen people as objects instead of image bearers.” Write what He shows you.
Then ask Holy Spirit for one mindset shift and one act of service you will take the next time He prompts you.
