Welcome to The Light, your quiet hour of reflection.
In Canada, a physician has been placed under supervision after medical regulators found he assessed a patient's eligibility for assisted dying at a coffee shop, and failed to properly administer medication to a second patient. It raises tender questions about the gravity of such moments, and the sacred weight of presence they require.
Closer to the world of song and spirit, Brandon Lake swept the thirteenth annual K-LOVE Fan Awards, taking home the evening's highest honors. In his acceptance, he urged fellow believers not to keep their faith contained within familiar walls, but to carry it outward, into the rooms where it has not yet been heard.
And in Washington, the Nationals have parted ways with a team official after undercover footage surfaced showing him suggesting that pitcher Trevor Williams was quietly sidelined from promotional efforts following his public opposition to drag queen events at the ballpark. The story touches something unresolved in us about fairness, belief, and who gets to be seen.
Three stories, three questions worth sitting with. That's this hour's reflection. Carry the light gently.
