Source: Charles Spurgeon53 words

"A lamp to my feet—not a searchlight showing miles ahead but a lamp showing the next step. Scripture guides us step by step, day by day. We do not need to see the whole path; we need light for the present moment.

Theological Quote

Lesslie Newbigin on Word for the Way - Missional (Psalm 119:105)

"The missionary walks into cultural darkness needing light. God's Word illumines not just personal morality but missional direction: where to go, what to say, how to witness. Scripture guides the sent church into unfamiliar territory. The Word lights the missional path." — Lesslie Newbigin.
