Lesson 418: The Staggering Claims of Jesus (John 8:12-59)
Like Jesus, we live in a world that is content to remain in the darkness of sin, ignorant of the freedom they can have in Him, the Light of the World. What are we doing to let His light shine forth brightly in this needy world? Stephen Davey is teaching through the Bible with a new lesson each weekday.

Lesson 417: The Woman Caught in Adultery (John 8:1-11)
Those who see sinners simply as people to be condemned and used are as guilty as those they condemn. Like Jesus, we should not excuse sin, but we should act with love and compassion toward those who need His forgiveness. An incident in John 8 highlights this perspective.

Lesson 416: Maniac or Messiah? (Luke 9:51-56; John 7:2-52)
Who is Jesus? Is He Israel’s Messiah and God in the flesh? Or is He simply a man, not God but one who taught wonderful truths and provided the greatest of all examples to follow? This is the most important question a person can answer: Who is Jesus? Stephen Davey is teaching through the Bible with a new lesson each weekday.

Lesson 415: Admiring Jesus or Following Jesus? (Matthew 8:19-22; Luke 9:57-62)
Jesus Christ is Lord. If we fail to follow Him, it is not because He has given us no reason to do so but simply because we place our own desires ahead of Him. Three would-be disciples with typical excuses demonstrate this sad truth. Stephen Davey is teaching through the Bible with a new lesson each weekday.

Lesson 414: Church Discipline and Reconciliation (Matthew 18:15-35)

Lesson 413: Overcoming the Disease of More (Matthew 17:24–18:14; Mark 9:33-50; Luke 9:46-50)
To be humble is to follow the example of our Lord and Savior. That means putting aside self-interest and petty jealousies. It also means seeing faithful believers as coworkers, not competitors, and rejoicing in their service for the Lord. Stephen Davey is teaching through the Bible with a new lesson each weekday.

Lesson 412: Confusion Now . . . Understanding Later (Matthew 17:9-23; Mark 9:9-32; Luke 9:37-45)
At times we see great potential in Jesus’ disciples, but we also frequently see a lack of understanding, faith, and power. God’s work in us has given us great potential too, but the disciples’ example gives us fair warning against self-assurance. Stephen Davey is teaching through the Bible with a new lesson each weekday.

Lesson 410: How to Carry Your Cross (Matthew 16:24-28; Mark 8:34–9:1; Luke 9:23-27)
Being a faithful disciple of Jesus is not about making Him a part of your life; it is about giving Him your life. As Jesus Himself puts it, you are to deny yourself and take up your cross daily.

Lesson 409: Who is Jesus to You? (Matthew 15:39–16:23; Mark 8:10-33; Luke 9:18-22)
Who is Jesus? This is the one question we must answer and answer correctly. Who He is defines who we are as Christians. To consider Him anything less than the Messiah, the sovereign Lord, God in the flesh, and our Savior is to dishonor Him and call our own faith into question.
