Christians find themselves caught up in the grand story of God creating the universe, sin breaking God's creation, and Jesus dying to redeem mankind. However, the story doesn't end with redemption. There's something more God wants to do in us and He uses the truth of His Word to accomplish it.

Jesus said that true believers will abide in His Word and the truth will set you free. What does that mean? What is truth? How do we find truth? How do we abide in His Word? On what authority does Jesus make these claims? 

When Jesus made the statement that He was the light of the world, it was again a massive, blatant claim to be the Messiah that had been promised of old. In addition to that, His claim has very real consequences for us today as we navigate a world gone haywire.

John chapter seven lists a series of twenty questions asked by both Jesus and the crowds listening to him. We can boil those down to six questions that help us understand who Jesus really is.

When the Word became flesh and dwelled among us, He came with two things that we desperately need: grace and truth.

We are called to stand firm and hold fast to the truth we've been given even during times of intense suffering or persecution. The good news is that when we grow weary, God renews our strength.
