In which John and David return to the narrative of John chapter 9 and show, amongst other things, that the story doesn't end where you think. The discussion that follows this miracle is an important one in understanding Jesus as he's shown to us by John. But we also think this story is bigger than we often realize - in more ways than one.

We recommend listening to Miracles 17 before this episode.
