God has put light in you. Are you giving it to others? Christians believe they have received the light of Christ by grace, through faith (John 8:12; 12:36). But what does this mean, and what difference does it make in everyday life? In The Christ-Light , award-winning author Pierce Taylor Hibbs answers those questions with Scripture, poetry, and prayer. Tracing the theme of light throughout the Bible, he tells the story of God's mysterious love and its potent effect on those who believe. In these pages, readers will find not only biblical theology, but passionate reflection and encouragement, pointing them toward a life of self-giving for others, empowered by the Holy Spirit. The Christ-Light helps us glimpse the beauty of Christian community, rooted in and stretching towards the light of God's love in Christ Jesus. "Pierce has often given me good counsel and prayer support. In this book, he presents a fresh and biblical account of Christ's presence in believers, using the biblical metaphor of Christ as a threefold light. I commend it to all who want to know Jesus better." - John M. Frame , author of Systematic Theology and The Theology of Lordship series, former J. D. Trimble Chair of Systematic Theology and Philosophy at Reformed Theological Seminary "A combination of rich, deep theology, vivid illustration, poetic feeling, and the wonder of the theme of light in Scripture make this book a wonder to read." - Vern S. Poythress , author of The Mystery of the Trinity , In the Beginning Was the Word , and God-Centered Biblical Interpretation , Distinguished Professor of New Testament, Biblical Interpretation, and Systematic Theology at Westminster Theological Seminary "This is a remarkable book, a blend of good theology, extensive reflection, poetic insight, and incisive application. It points beyond the messy world of sin and depravity to the glorious transformative process enacted by Christ through his Spirit. It fills a real void." - Robert Letham , author of The Holy Trinity , Systematic Theology , and The Holy Spirit , Professor of Systematic and: istorical Theology, Union School of Theology "The Christ-Light bears all my favorite things: poetry, theology, humility, curiosity, warmth, beauty, and love. This is a book to read alone in holy contemplation, and it's a book to read in community for godly action. It's wonderful." - Karen Swallow Prior , author of The Evangelical Imagination: How Stories, Images & Metaphors Created a Culture in Crisis Pierce Taylor Hibbs (MAR, ThM Westminster Theological Seminary) is an award-winning Christian wordsmith and educator who builds things to bring readers closer to God.
