Finding the Light in Spiritual Darkness

What part of your life is feeling dark right now? In this special on-location episode, Dr. Sri takes us up Mount Tabor—the very site of the Transfiguration—to explore how this powerful event speaks directly into the darkest places of our lives. Standing where Peter, James, and John once witnessed Christ’s glory, Dr. Sri reflects on why Jesus revealed His radiance at this pivotal moment and how that same light strengthens us through seasons of confusion, fear, weakness, and suffering.
