Bible School for Adults

This Little Light of Mine: How to Shine in a Dark World

By Tana M. Collins ? The Resilient Heart Press

In a world growing darker by the day, many believers feel their light flickering ? not because they've lost their faith, but because life has worn them thin. This Little Light of Mine: How to Shine in a Dark World is a nine-week Bible School for Adults designed to help Christians rediscover the power, purpose, and visibility of the light God placed within them.

This is not a theological textbook. It's not a self-help manual. It's a practical discipleship journey that meets readers in the real places where their light is tested ? rude people, family conflict, emotional exhaustion, spiritual discouragement, intrusive thoughts, and everyday moments where obedience feels small but carries kingdom weight.

Through Scripture study, reflection, activation exercises, spoken declarations, and guided prayer, readers learn how to:

• Shine with confidence in difficult relationships
• Respond with discernment instead of reaction
• Offer grace without sacrificing healthy boundaries
• Stand firm when darkness pushes back
• Carry light into their homes, workplaces, and communities
• Overcome internal battles with truth and clarity
• Persevere with steady faith until Jesus returns

Each chapter blends biblical depth with real-life application, making complex spiritual concepts easy to understand without watering them down. Whether used individually or in a group setting, this curriculum equips believers to make their faith visible, audible, and active ? the way God intended.

Light was God's first creative act. It is still His chosen instrument.And now, it's your turn to shine.
