Light is an important part of life, even if we don't completely understand it. In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus Himself said that Christians are "the light of the world".

Scientists will all agree that light travels at 186 thousand miles per second, but they don't agree on much more!

That's what we'll explore today on the program as Lloyd brings us another message from his series on the Sermon on the Mount.

How do you define success? Many in the world would list money, fame or power. But today we'll notice what the marks of a successful person really are, by utilizing our Lord's standards.

By paying close attention, you'll discover valuable instruction on how to be influential and beneficial.

Light enhances the detail of the things around us. While delivering His Sermon on the Mount, Jesus likened the Christian to light, and salt. We'll see how we can be salt to a world desperate for some good seasoning!
