This episode urges listeners to value others in everyday moments—especially young people facing loneliness, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts—and highlights September as Suicide Prevention Month.

It offers three practical steps: see people (make eye contact and learn names), stop for people (pause and listen), and speak life (encourage and affirm gifts and worth), with examples from Jesus and real-life impact.

Listeners are invited to act as community, creating ripples of hope, and to join in a closing prayer asking God to open eyes, give compassion, and use us to remind others they are seen, loved, and valued.

Practical Steps to Live This Out
So how do we live this out in practical ways? Let me give you three simple but powerful steps:

1. See people. Don’t just walk past. Make eye contact. Say their name. Acknowledge their presence. Let them know they matter.

2. Stop for people. In our busy lives, it’s easy to rush by. But pausing, listening, and giving your time can make a world of difference.

3. Speak life. Your words carry weight. Use them to encourage. Call out the gifts and talents you see in others. Help people see the value that God has already placed inside them.
