On June 24, 64 AD, Emperor Nero began the brutal persecution of Christians in Rome. Men and women were arrested, crucified, and even burned as human torches in the emperor's gardens. Nero believed fire could silence the faith.
Nearly fifteen centuries later, on the same date, John of the Cross was born in Spain. Imprisoned by his own religious order and confined to a dark cell, he discovered something remarkable: sometimes God does His deepest work in the dark. From that prison came The Dark Night of the Soul, one of the most enduring spiritual works in Christian history.
One man used darkness to destroy.
The other found God within it.
In today's episode, we explore the contrast between Nero's cruelty and John of the Cross's faith, and the enduring truth that the light shines in the darkness—and the darkness has not overcome it.
Scripture: John 1:5
"The flame shall not hurt thee; I only design
Thy dross to consume and thy gold to refine."
