Have you ever wrestled with doubt? This week’s song, My Lighthouse by Rend Collective, and our Scripture references remind us that God is faithful while we wrestle through doubt, hard times, storms, sorrow, and the rigors of life. It also reminds us that we can trust God’s promise that he will carry us and bring us safely to shore.
Jesus is the “light of the world,” and we can run to him for refuge and rescue.
In this episode, I discuss:
- “God in the Dark: The Assurance of Faith Beyond the Shadow of a Doubt” by Os Guinness – Amazon Paid Link
- The difference between doubt and unbelief
- Jesus as the light of the world – John 8:12 and other verses
- God leading with a pillar of fire – Exodus 13:17-22
- A “Behind the Song” interview with Rend Collective – New Release Tuesday
- How we are the light of the world, too – Matthew 5:14-16
- God’s promise to carry us – Isaiah 46:3-4

This Week’s Challenge
