Healing the Blind

The Season of Easter and the Gospel of John are both celebrations of life. In his attempt to celebrate life, John intentionally mimics the creation account of Genesis. However, in John, rather than seven days of creation, which conclude with God resting, seven miracles are followed by the resurrected Jesus who meets with and talks to Mary Magdalene in a garden. The imagery of Jesus and Mary in a garden is a picture of new life in a new world that slowly builds in John’s gospel, miracle by miracle. Throughout the Season of Easter, this sermon series titled New Creations will explore the goodness of Jesus’ life in this world, one miracle at a time.
