    • 7. “The Light of the Righteous Shines Brightly”

      (8 min.) Discussion.

      God’s Word contains matchless knowledge and wisdom. When we rely on it to light our way, we enjoy lasting success and happiness. That is something the world just cannot offer.

      A scene from the video “The World Cannot Give You What It Does Not Have.” Sister Gainanshina sits in a field and looks up at the sky.

      Play the VIDEO The World Cannot Give You What It Does Not Have. Then ask the audience:

      • How does Sister Gainanshina’s experience highlight the superiority of “the light of the righteous” in comparison to “the lamp of the wicked”?​—Pr 13:9

      Never waste your time fantasizing about the things of this world or regretting the choices you have made that allow you to serve Jehovah. (1Jo 2:15-17) Instead, focus on the “excelling value of the knowledge” that you have gained.​—Php 3:8.
