Following Jesus In John's Gospel | The Light Of The World | John 8:12-20

This week we continue to explore the ways that John describes discipleship in his gospel. In this message, the first of two different sermons this week, considers Jesus' invitation to follow him; the light of the world.When we follow the light of the world we are being led to the Father from whence we receive an identity, a purpose, and a mission. Like Jesus himself, we find our identity in relationship with the Father, are invited to know the Father more and more, and to join the Father in his restoring work.May you be about the work of a lighthouse keeper this week; revealing Jesus and participating in rescue when opportunity calls!Do you have one or two people in your life who can help you check your blind spots? These people are a gift to us to faithfully follow Jesus. Whoever has ears to hear, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches.Don't forget that you can find our discipleship menu for this series on our website under the Next Steps tab and growing, join us as we seek to follow Jesus together.Is there someone you know who really needs to hear this message?
