About this episode
We are one week into a new season of Bible Caddie, still making it our aim to get to know Jesus. And for the next few weeks we are asking, “What did Jesus claim?” He made a number of enormous claims. Claims that if they’re not true, they’re absurd. And if they are true, they demand our attention and allegiance. The claims we are looking at are Jesus’ “I Am” statements from the Gospel of John— which are some of His most significant. Our hope is that those of you who haven’t made up your mind about Jesus yet would see who He is and trust Him. And that those of you who already believe would be strengthened in your grasp of who Jesus is. Last week, we saw Jesus claim to be the bread of life— the one who provides nourishment and satisfaction and life for His people. Today, we turn our attention to Jesus’ second “I Am” statement. We’ll pick up reading at the end of John 7 and read through the first part of John 8.
