I AM: The Light of the World || Rev. Michael Hands

In Week 3 of our I AM series, Rev. Michael explores one of Jesus’ most profound declarations: “I am the Light of the World.” (John 8:12–20) Spoken during the Feast of Tabernacles — surrounded by imagery of fire, light and God’s guiding presence — Jesus reveals Himself as the true Light who leads people out of darkness and into life. This message explores: • Jesus as the Light of the World — God’s presence that guides, reveals and saves • How Jesus’ identity is inseparable from His relationship with the Father • Why the Pharisees rejected His testimony, and what that reveals about spiritual blindness • The urgency of responding to the light while it is before us Throughout Scripture, light is associated with the presence of God — from the pillar of fire in Exodus, to the Psalms declaring “The Lord is my light,” to Isaiah’s promise of a coming light for the nations. In Jesus, that promise is fulfilled. Whether you’re exploring faith or have followed Jesus for years, this message is an invitation to step out of darkness and walk in the light of Christ. 📺 Watch live: church.nu/live every Sunday from 10:15am 🎧 Explore more messages: church.nu/messages
