Oh hey! It’s just me this week — voice a little croaky after a big weekend at a church conference, but still so excited to be diving into God’s Word with you!
Today we’re unpacking one of Jesus’ boldest “I Am” statements in John 8:12:
"I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life."
This verse is more than just poetic — it’s a powerful reminder that no matter how dark life feels, we’re not alone. Jesus doesn’t just shine light, He is the light. And when we follow Him, we get to walk in clarity, truth, and hope — even when life is messy or confusing.
We’ll explore the context of this verse, what it meant to the people Jesus was speaking to, and what it means for us today. If you've ever felt like you were stumbling through a dark season, I pray this conversation encourages you to hold tight to the Light that never fades.
