GQM One Focus Theme: BEING THE LIGHT
A burning bush with text that quotes 1 Timothy 1:9a, "God has saved us and called us to a holy life—not because of anything we have done but because of his own purpose and grace..."

"...that you may be blameless and innocent, children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and twisted generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world" —Philippians 2:15

All true believers are children of God (John 1:12-14). However, to live without blemish as God's children requires diligent effort. Part of the reason this is difficult is because of the sin inherent to the world around us. Believers are to be in the world, not of it, leading to difficult situations, and temptation. Yet believers are called to stand out as unique and powerful examples: "lights in the world." Paul's words closely resemble Jesus who taught, "Let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven" (Matthew 5:16).
