April 29, 2026Final Word: “You Are the Light of the World” | Matthew 5:14 Devotional | From The Press Box
A powerful reminder to close the show. 🙏
In today’s Final Word, we reflect on Matthew 5:14 — “You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden.”
Drawing from Genesis and the creation of light, we explore three key properties of light and what they mean for our daily walk:
Reflection — letting others see Christ through us
Refraction — how light can change direction… and lives
Speed — how quickly light can overcome darkness
Just as God said “Let there be light,” we’re called to shine in a world that often feels dark.
Let your light shine. Don’t hide it.
