John - Light Of The World

This week we continue in our series in the book of John, using Jesus' declaration "I am the light of the world" in John 8 as the anchor for the message. He frames darkness not as moral evil but as disorientation, the state of being without guidance, drawing from a vivid childhood story and the historical imagery of the 75-foot lamp stands lit during the Feast of Tabernacles. We explore the growing conflict with the Pharisees and connects the "I Am" language directly back to the Father-Son thread woven throughout the entire book of John.
