John 9

Gospel of JohnSteve Gregg
In this talk, Steve Gregg analyzes John 9 to discuss the theme of suffering and healing. He questions the assumptions that individuals may make about suffering and the fairness behind it, citing the example of Job's friends. Gregg suggests that it is important to not discount miracles and evidence in our beliefs, and emphasizes the need for humility and openness to learning about spiritual matters. The talk ends with an exploration of the idea that choosing darkness over light results in the loss of understanding and is ultimately a choice.
