Do You Find the Setting for the Most Famous Bible Verse Strange?

John 3:16.

It's been inked on parchment with fancy swirls. It's been printed on $4.99 t-shirts. It's engraved on silver mugs and carved in rosewood. It's been whispered in prisons and shouted from pulpits.

The gospel -- "Good News" -- in one sentence, spoken by Jesus.

And on what occasion?

The Sermon on the Mount? Nope.

Feeding of the Five Thousand? Nada.

Upper Room with the Disciples? Try again.

To one man, not a believer but a doubter, at night.

Astounding!

World-transforming words aren't just proclaimed from stages or shared on viral videos. You never know what conversation you will have that will be impacting lives generations from now.

What else can we learn from this exchange?

The Gospel is always about the one. The individual. The person.
