Illume makes Spotlights
Illume creates and helps to manage small groups that meet either in person or online to walk together through our Spotlights, which are weekly, interactive, and multimedia-driven sessions. These sessions explore various spiritual and life-related themes, providing insights and fostering discussions that challenge and enrich. Each Spotlight is crafted to engage participants in a journey of restful reflection, learning, and active engagement.
We believe that developing vulnerable, interdependent relationships by worshiping, learning, and serving together is a great way to bring light into the dark parts of life.

January 12th, 2025
Have you ever been so lost in thought that you run into something? Or how about this: Have you ever wanted something so much that when something else happened (even if that something else was a good thing) you weren't happy with it because you were so distracted by what you had imagined?
There's a tension between reality and dreams that can hurt (whether you're running into a pole or mad about an...
Mercy, Not Sacrifice - Illume in a Certain Light (Focus 1 of 4)
January 2nd, 2025
When ancient believers came to worship with sacrifices, they felt like they were making a payment on a debt. If "the gods" liked their payment, then they'd respond well. If they didn't… try again, and quickly. Even though the God of the Bible created a sacrificial system, he has never and will never function this way. With this God, mercy comes before sacrifice. When one person comes to another wi...
