Today we’re going to see that physical sight isn’t the only sight Jesus gives the man who was born blind. The sight Jesus gives this man a second kind of sight that is even more valuable, spiritual sight.
Have you ever met someone who changed so much that you didn’t realize who he or she was? In today’s passage, we will look at a person who was accused of being a liar by the rulers of the city when he explained how his change happened.

Today we see the amazing joy of seeing that we are no longer condemned for our sins because of Jesus’ gift of grace to us!
