This sermon , titled "Jesus: Our Hope in Darkness," explores the Biblical book of John, chapter 8, verses 12-30, through the lens of Jesus as the "light of the world." Pastor Chris Myers emphasizes that sin has pervasive effects on humanity, drawing connections from Genesis 3 to contemporary issues. He argues that Jesus offers the singular solution to sin, presenting Him in three key roles: our guiding light, our sovereign king, and our ransom for sin. Through analogies like "Top Gun Maverick" and "Karate Kid," the sermon encourages believers to consistently follow Jesus's teachings, highlighting that salvation is a gift received through faith and that spiritual growth is an ongoing process of becoming more like Him.
