"'Open the eyes of my heart, Lord' is not just a lyric in a song; it's a biblical prayer. There are things we don't know or have yet to perceive that God wants to reveal to us. Why? Because He wants us to know Him for who He really is. If you long for a clearer spiritual vision, read this book. Pastor Alan Wright has crafted a message that the world desperately needs. The enemy of our souls wants us to live with an earthbound, unredemptive perspective, because if we dare to view God, ourselves, and others with eyes of faith, hope, and love, a revival might just break out. I love this book."

"Alan Wright has done it again! With great skill, he always causes me to think new thoughts, go to new places, and see new things. Our prayer ought to be, 'Lord Jesus, cause me to think Your thoughts after You, to see through Your eyes, to hear through Your ears, and to love those You love.' If that's your prayer, as it is mine, Seeing as Jesus Sees is the book to put legs on that prayer. Read it and 'see' what happens. You'll be surprised and pleased."
Steve Brown, founder of Key Life Network, Inc.; visiting professor of practical theology at Knox Theological Seminary and Westminster Theological Seminary; author of Laughter and Lament
"This book investigating the dynamic of seeing is both timely and timeless. Trying to believe and behave without a God-given perspective can produce only frustration and kill any joy the gospel might give. The insights Alan Wright shares in Seeing as Jesus Sees enhance the beauty of the gospel."
