Talking John - Episode 16: ”I Once Was Blind”

Episode 16 - I Once Was Blind

Scripture: John 9:1-41

Description: In this Chapter, a favorite of John White’s, we look at the healing of the blind man, and the subsequent negative reaction that occurs all around him.  We then ask questions about who was really blind in this story.

 

Questions to consider if you are using this podcast for study:

1. Why do you think there was so little celebration for this man who was healed of his blindness?
2. When have you felt treated like just an object and not a person, or when have you realized you treated someone else that way? How did it feel? What do you wish had been done differently?
3. When has someone you didn’t expect brought wisdom or talents or understanding? How did you respond?
4. Who was blind in this story for you?
5. What does it take to change someone’s perspective?  Why do people resist such change?
