The Man Born Blind Made Simple

by Kimani Upshur, M.Ed.

Born blind — one washing in Siloam, and he came seeing. This Bible-first guide follows the man born blind through John 9: the disciples' wrong question about sin and suffering, Jesus making clay and sending him to wash in Siloam, the neighbors' confusion, the Pharisees' interrogations, his parents' fear, his bold testimony "one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see," his being cast out, and his final worship of the Son of God. Twelve chapters cover suffering's purpose, faith's obedience, the cost of confessing Christ, and the journey from physical darkness to spiritual sight — plus fourteen reflection questions for personal study or group discussion.
