Called to Walk in Love and Light
January 28, 2026
“Wow, you really look like your dad.”
If you’re like me, you might’ve heard something like that a time or two. While I can’t say I’m necessarily ecstatic about sharing my dad’s facial features, I do hope to emulate his work ethic and deep appreciation for the beauty of God’s creation. Those are qualities that have been formed over time, through daily habits and cultivated values.
This February, Cascade Christian will walk through Ephesians 5, where Paul calls believers to Walk in Love and Light. At its heart, this passage is an invitation to emulate Jesus—not merely to admire Him, but to shape our lives after His.
Jesus walked in love, even when it cost Him His very life. Jesus walked in the light, even when it meant being rejected by those who preferred the darkness.
Christianity is not about striving harder to be “good people.” Scripture calls us into something deeper and far more beautiful: to walk so closely with Christ that His love and light transform us. That our words, attitudes, and priorities would all be marked by, and be reflections of, Him.
And the wonderful hope in this is that the world might one day look at our lives and say, “You look a lot like your heavenly Father.”
Here are some sweet moments of our Cascade Christian students displaying the love and light of Jesus.
During Cougar Family Groups, a fifth grade student proactively stepped in to help a kindergartner find and read the Scripture.
Precious prayers continue to mark our classrooms and hallways at Cascade Christian!
