Bringing back The Lighthouse Project
Print
Doubt's a killer. Killed my baseball career. Almost killed my faith in God. But you know what they say about things that don't kill us. That's right. Doubt's made me stronger.
If that sounds a little cheesy, I apologize.
A year ago, that doubt was doing my faith in. I was obsessed with finding evidence for God, or for Jesus, or for anything I'd been raised to believe that made me a Christian.
Then I had the thought: the greatest evidence for Jesus Christ and God exists in the lives of people changed by them today. That thought gave birth to The Lighthouse Project, a search for those stories. I approached them as a journalist, digging until I knew these people were for real.
The Lighthouse Project shares those stories. It's my new blog, available here at BrandonSneed.com. I've launched it twice in the past, only for it to fizzle out as I ran out of time. But not stories. The stories came by the truckloads, and still have, even in TLP's absence.
Now, seeing the need for me as a writer to establish a blogging presence, and the good that these stories can do for our world, I'm launching TLP yet once more.
I'm starting by revisiting some old stories from the original TLP. Next week, I'll give you some new stories and essays. Good times are head.
The focus of TLP has changed, but only slightly. It used to be about evidence. Now it's about finding True Love. Finding God, He Who the Scriptures say is Love itself. Finding Him in the lives of others, by exploring the stories of how they found Love, too.
So hop over there. It just takes a click. And please, share this with everyone you know. There is no judgment there, no brow-beating, no condemnation, and no malice. There's just a search for Love, and stories of those who've found Him.
Thank you so much.
- Brandon
