Seeing is Believing

What happens when Jesus steps into a situation that seems impossible to change?

In this Church Family Deep Dive, we revisit Pastor Malcolm Macqueen’s sermon “Seeing is Believing”, delivered at KCC AoG Church, Old Town, Swindon, exploring the powerful account in John 9 of Jesus healing a man who had been blind from birth.

Born blind, living blind and expected to remain blind, this man's future appeared already decided. Then Jesus entered his life.

Together, we explore why Jesus used such an unusual method to heal him, why the man's obedience mattered and why those who witnessed an undeniable miracle responded so differently. Some questioned what they saw, some accepted it and others rejected it altogether.

The conversation also tackles the deeper challenges raised by the sermon: Can pride keep us spiritually blind? What are we afraid of losing if we fully follow Jesus? Are we prepared to change? And if Christ sets us free, what will we do with that freedom?

Drawing on John 9, Habakkuk and Philippians 3, this episode considers what it means to walk by faith when circumstances haven't yet changed, to praise God while we're still waiting and to believe the full Gospel — that Jesus saves, sanctifies, heals, delivers and is coming again.
