In this lesson from the Gospel of John, we examine the theme of testimony, a central concept throughout John's writing. 

John's gospel is not merely a historical record but a testimony for his community in Ephesus and, by extension, a testimony for us today.

In our modern world, many of us are consumed with logic, reason, and apologetics to defend the existence of God.
 
Yet, the Bible doesn't call us to prove God's existence scientifically. Instead, we are called to testify. 

Like the Scriptures offer testimony to God's actions in history, we provide testimony to how God has worked in our own lives.
 
Proof speaks to the intellect, but testimony speaks to the soul.

The Gospel of John highlights this contrast: "I was blind, but now I see." This simple yet profound line isn't a logical argument—it's a testimony of transformation. 

John's gospel, more than the other three, emphasizes the importance of testimony, especially in a world that no longer regards the Bible as relevant or God as real.

When faced with a world that argues away proofs, what remains is the power of personal testimony. 

Testimony speaks to the heart in a way that intellectual arguments never will.
 
Join us as we explore this essential theme and learn how to engage a skeptical world with the simplicity and power of our own stories of transformation.
