Here's Mud in Your Eye!

Jesus had no formula for healing. He spoke. He touched people. He prayed over them. He mixed dirt with his spit and spread it on their eyes.

Wait, what?!

What would you be willing to endure to receive healing? To gain clarity? A new perspective? How about mud in your eyes?

We dive into the story of the man blind from birth who received his sight through two choices: a) the humility to get spit & dirt spread over his eyes; b) the willingness to follow Jesus' instructions when there was no promise of reward attached.

From John chapter 9 we also unpack the faulty and dangerous beliefs linking disabilities to divine retribution.
