Choose Light and Love: Faith in Action

Mother Paige reflects on John 3:16 and God’s love for the whole world, paired with the call of Abram and Sarah to be blessed in order to bless every family on earth. She emphasizes that faith is an active verb shown in lived action, not merely intellect, doctrine, or a formulaic prayer, and that Jesus is the light that shines in the darkness. Noting the broader context of Jesus’ conversation with Nicodemus, she highlights the choice people make to love darkness rather than light and invites listeners, especially in Lent, to examine how their lives reflect God’s love and to “pivot” practices when needed. She urges gentleness with questioning Nicodemus, whose arc includes continued inquiry, later defense of Jesus, and presence at his burial, and encourages ongoing questions and repeated choosing of love and light.00:00 Opening Prayer00:12 God Loves the World01:02 Abram Called to Bless01:50 Faith as Action02:46 Light Versus Darkness03:59 Lent as a Pivot05:12 Nicodemus Questions05:49 Born From Above06:53 Choosing Love and Light
