Conversations in John - Chapter 9: 1-17


Listen Later

Ever wonder why bad things happen to good people? In this powerful episode, Drew and Tyler dive into John 9, where Jesus heals a man born blind—but not before completely flipping the disciples' assumptions about suffering, sin, and God's purpose.

The guys tackle the hard questions we all ask: Why is there evil in the world? Is suffering always punishment? And why does Jesus sometimes heal with just a word, but other times uses... mud and spit?

From challenging our modern tendency to call everything "good" when it might be harmful, to exposing how we've replaced golden calves with smartphones, this conversation gets real about idolatry, motivation, and what it actually means to pursue God.

You'll discover: • Why the disciples' question about sin reveals our own broken assumptions • How Jesus redefines "good" and "evil" from God's perspective • The surprising reason Jesus used mud on the Sabbath (spoiler: it wasn't just about healing) • What it means that every encounter with Jesus ends with a commission to "go" • Why even the Pharisees started to divide over who Jesus really was

Whether you're struggling with unanswered prayers, questioning your motives for reading Scripture, or just trying to understand why life feels broken sometimes—this episode offers hope. Because Jesus doesn't just heal our physical blindness. He pursues us with persistent love, even when we should know better.
