Search for the Light
He lay in the darkness for hours feeling sorry for
himself—for the lives he had ruined and the
body that he'd abused—but down in those
unfathomable depths everything changed. His mind
became clear and he started focusing on God.
He realized he
wasn't in charge of his own
destiny, that he was going to die at God's time, not
his. With no idea how to get out of the
cave, he
decided to blindly crawl in search of the light.

 From the Edge of Faith
In the song, "Secret of the Easy Yoke," the narrator
talks about feeling alienated at church, attending but
not hearing the gospel, not finding rest for her soul.
As she begins to give up on faith toward the end of
the song, a refrain rings out, and Bazan quietly
begins to echo the words of Christ in the storm,
"peace be still," over and over again until the song
fades out.

 Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
Our response to this film could well start with a prayer
for deliverance—from all blindness of heart,
from
false doctrine, from lightning, and
tempest—and a plea to bring into the way of
truth all who are deceived.

Cinderella Man
In boxing, as in any sport, when one person wins,
someone else loses. How about in life? What can we
do to ensure our own heroics don't wind up
victimizing others? Rather than focusing merely on
our own journey, how can we ensure that the pursuit
of our liberation also leads to the liberation of others?
