    A life of peace and joy, that’s the kind of life I want to live; a life without worries and troubles.

    John 9 is a compelling chapter in John’s Gospel. The healing of the man born blind confronts us with our own spiritual blindness. As we read, we are confronted with the same question that Jesus presents him, "Do you believe in the Son of Man?" Jesus, the

    John presents his gospel in much the same way that a lawyer presents evidence in a kind of divine trial. He compels his “jury” to make a decision for themselves about Jesus – “do you believe or not?” The gospel is often divided into two sections – the Book of Signs (chapters 1-12) and the Book of ...read more
