Focus Question:
What is spiritual blindness?
Intro:
Today is a day of rejoicing. At least I hope it is for you.
We have two longish chapters to read today, both of which really should get knocked down in their entirety. And this first in our NT segment is one that has always stirred my heart, and I hope it stirs yours, too. In one way, the answer to our focus question should be really obvious — What is spiritual blindness? In another, we should also make it a point to be clear on the definition, which will be short and we’ll do shortly following.
New Testament segment:
Passage: John 9

Words: ~881
<YOU JUST NEED TO LISTEN TODAY>
Old Testament segment:
