Lauren Green has been a personal friend for years. Her insight into the depth and richness of our relationship with God is thought-provoking and awe-inspiring. While her professional career is highly successful, it’s her own life that is a beautiful example of a person who lives and walks in the light.

Lauren Green’s devotional is a poignant and luminous exploration of daily faith amid life’s busyness. Green skillfully weaves Scripture passages and reflections, illuminating the heart of God’s character. This isn’t merely a guide; it’s an invitation to rediscover the constancy of God’s light, shining brightly even in the foggiest moments of our journey.

As I read Light for Today, three words came to mind: beautiful, brilliant, biblical. They apply not only to the daily devotions but also to their author. Lauren is beautiful inside and out; she is brilliant as an author and as a public figure. Most importantly, both in person and in prose, she seeks to conform her life and literary skills to the infallible repository of redemptive revelation. Read a devotion each day and experience edification, equipping, and encouragement.
