Jesus is the Light

FIRST15
About this episode

As we learn this week of the light of God, today we’ll look to Jesus who is the Light. What does this mean about the Lord? And what does this mean for us personally? May our eyes behold him today, as we search out the source of goodness, beauty and holiness. May our hearts grow in wonder, worship and awe. And may our lives be forever transformed at the sight of him.

Our Scripture for today comes from Isaiah 60:20, and today's worship is Hey Jesus by Elyssa Smith (feat. Steffany Gretzinger).

If you’ve wrestled with making Bible study a consistent habit of spiritual formation, A Light Unto My Path will inspire and encourage you to drink more deeply from the unending well that is the Bible. 



A Light Unto My Path will answer these 7 critical questions: 

  • Why do we read the Bible?
  • How was the Bible created?
  • Why do we need to interpret the Bible?
  • What is the Bible about?
  • What are the best tools for studying the Bible?
  • What can I learn from others?
  • How can I learn for myself?

 

I love that the goal of this book is not to learn more about the Bible (even though you will), but to better understand the Bible as one of the primary ways God seeks to have a relationship with us today.
