Jesus Is The Light Of The World
Big Truth:
Jesus Is The Light Of The World
John 8:12; 9:5; 2 Corinthians 4:4; Hebrews 1:3
Bible Verse:
All things were made through Him, and without Him was not anything made that was made. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.

- Jesus is the one true Savior.
- We exist to point others to Jesus, not to ourselves.
- The darkness cannot and will not overcome the light.
Bible Passage:
John 1:1-14Identity:
FOCUS: I AM AN AMBASSADOR
SERIES: GOD IS THE SOURCE — I AM A LIGHT
The Kneel Year is an exploration of what it means to worship God with our all (Luke 10:26-28). Worship is not something that is limited to a service once a week, but instead occurs every day, in all of life. We are unceasing worshipers. Worship never stops, it only changes directions. In order to worship God with all of our heart, soul, strength, and mind, we must embrace our identity as image bearers. It is out of that identity that we can begin to live for God’s glory in all of life (Colossians 3:17).
Every student should know that:
- Our sin leads to darkness, but Jesus is light.
- Christians are set apart to shine the light of the gospel in the world.
Every student should strive to:
- Spend time each day learning more about who God is through His Word.
- Live a life that reflects God to the world.
- Share the gospel with at least one person who does not know Jesus.
Every student should feel:
- Humbled that they exist to point to Jesus alone.
- An urgency to make God known to the dying world around them.
Every student should want:
- To pursue holiness that points people away from themselves and towards Jesus.
- To reflect the Father by living sacrificially.
- To make known the love of God.
