Purpose of the Blog
The Light of Christ Journey blog is updated daily to inspire individuals. This support reassures people that the Lord cares and is involved in their lives. Additionally, we produce a weekly radio broadcast and podcast that complements the daily blog. Each devotional blog and podcast contributes to a broader message series that challenges and uplifts you on your journey.
Since posting our first blog in May 2019, we have continued to share the good news of Jesus with people worldwide. After the United States, our top nine reader nations for 2026 are the Philippines, Nigeria, the United Kingdom, Israel, South Africa, India, Canada, Hong Kong, and Australia.
Prayers about future Blog Topics
Each series we develop comes together after seeking the Lord. We pray about and develop the theme of each message as the Lord leads us. Our current series is called “The Battle is Real.” The supernatural realm and battle are real. Satan would like us to be ignorant so he can win the battle. Our gracious God has given us weapons and will give us his grace and mercy to stand in the battle.
