In this compelling lecture, Artur Valadares invites us to delve into one of the briefest and most profound dialogues in the Gospel: Jesus' encounter with his first disciples. Through the questions "What are you looking for?" and "Where do you live?", we are led to reflect on the real intentions behind our spiritual searches.

Are we merely on the "shell of life," seeking immediate relief, or are we ready for the movement of "going and seeing"? Artur addresses how the superficiality of the digital age has distanced us from our true mental dwelling place and how Christ's invitation demands effort, perseverance, and a vote of confidence so that God's glory may be revealed in our journey.

Main reflections from the video:

The psychological and spiritual analysis of the question "What are you looking for?".

The concept of "mental dwelling place" according to Emmanuel.

How to overcome modern distractions and social media to focus on what is eternal.

The binomial "Come and See": Why action must precede vision.
