Message by Todd Crosthwaite, Lead Pastor

THE MAN BORN BLIND

John 9

vs 1-3

SHIFT #1:from why to what

“Where do we go from here?”

SHIFT #2: from familiarity to risk

vs 6-7

SHIFT #3:from normal to new creation.

What does it mean to actually follow Jesus?

TRUTH #1: discipleship begins with an act of faith

Jesus wants our participation.

TRUTH #2: discipleship matures through testing

vs 8-17

SHIFT #4: from presence to absence

vs 24-33

James 1:2-4

vs 35-38

SHIFT #5:from walking in darkness to learning to walk in the light

TRUTH #3: discipleship culminates in worship

Even in the sense of absence, God is not absent.

He's training our eyes to see him.
