Quick Glance: For Your Heart Today

Pastor Doug shared that while world events may shift the course of history, the greatest change came through Jesus Christ—His life, ministry, death, and resurrection. Just as creation, the fall, God’s rescue plan, and the coming of the Messiah transformed the spiritual landscape, Jesus transforms us personally. From darkness to light, we are called to live as people who reflect what is good, right, and true, allowing God’s light to expose, reveal, and guide us into humility and Christlike character.


3 Takeaways

Live as People of Light – Ephesians 5:8–9 calls us to move from darkness to light, producing what is good, right, and true.

Let the Light Transform You – God’s Word and Spirit expose, reveal, and guide, replacing pride with humility.

Embrace Ongoing Change – Though made new in Christ, we still wrestle with our old nature; transformation is a daily, Spirit-enabled journey.


If You Only Have a Moment

Inhale: “Jesus, shine Your light in me…”

Exhale: “…and guide me in what is good, right, and true.”
