About this Episode

"I AM the Light of the World" - Power and Promise Series

Journey into the rich symbolism of the Festival of Tabernacles, where Jesus makes His bold declaration in the temple courts. Against the backdrop of 75-foot-tall candelabras and nights of celebration, discover how this powerful statement connects to Israel's history and God's presence in the wilderness.

Key Insights:
• The historical significance of the unlit temple candelabras
• How Jesus fulfills the prophecy of God's glory returning to His people
• The connection between the pillar of fire in the wilderness and Jesus's declaration
• Why the temple's dark night symbolized Israel's spiritual condition
• How Jesus brings light into every dark corner of our lives

Scripture Focus: John 8:12

Through this message, understand why everything falls apart when Jesus isn't the light of your life, and how His presence can illuminate:
Comfort in dark moments
Safety in uncertainty
Clarity in confusion
Direction for your path
Beauty in overlooked places
True life in spiritual darkness

Speaker: Matt Petty
