It Is Written: When Light Shines Through
Like the stained glass windows of an old church, your life comes alive when heaven's light shines through. Available July 26, 2026.
When heaven's light meets your life, the story it tells is unmistakable.
Like the stained glass windows of an old church, stories come alive through color and light. Long before many could read, those windows spoke — revealing beauty, suffering, redemption, and hope. When the light shone through, the story became clear. Your life is no different. Each day is another pane — colored by love and loss, joy and sorrow, victories and setbacks. On their own, the pieces can feel scattered. But when heaven's light shines through, a greater story emerges — one marked by purpose and divine design.

See beyond coincidence. Recognize that God is at work.
It Is Written: When Light Shines Through invites you to see beyond coincidence and recognize that God is actively at work in your everyday life. Through ordinary moments and unexpected turns, He is revealing something deeper than what you see on the surface. These are not random fragments. They are part of a story already written.
Heaven is not distant — it is present, breaking into the ordinary.
Rooted in Colossians 3:1–3, this book lifts your perspective to see that what once felt unclear is being formed into something meaningful in the light of Christ.
Colossians 3:1–3
"Since you have been raised to new life with Christ, set your sights on the realities of heaven, where Christ sits in the place of honor at God's right hand. Think about the things of heaven, not the things of earth. For you died to this life, and your real life is hidden with Christ in God." Heaven is not far off — it is the lens through which every day is meant to be seen.
Psalm 139:16
"You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed." God has written out our days before we even live them.
Romans 8:28
"And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them." Every moment, even trials, is woven into God's greater plan for good.
Hebrews 12:2
"We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfector of our faith." Jesus is not just our Savior but the author of our faith story.

The craziest, most oxymoronic thing I've ever done.
I'm writing a book — yet I can barely read, and I'd never really read one before. How on earth could I pull this off? A good friend reminded me of John Bunyan, an uneducated English preacher who penned Pilgrim's Progress while in prison in the 1670s. His story is a powerful reminder: God doesn't need credentials to use someone — just willingness. This book is for my mom, who first showed me what it means to follow Jesus. Welcome to a journey of ordinary people doing extraordinary things, all for His glory. Because it is written, and God is still writing. — Joshua P. Underbakke
