2 Digest

Answer from what the passage actually says — stay in the text.

1. What does this passage show me about God?

   • How does Jesus treat the woman caught in adultery, and what is he claiming when he says 'I am the light of the world' and 'before Abraham was born, I am'?

2. What does it show me about people — and about myself?

   • Jesus said, 'You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.' Where do you still live as if you were a slave?

3. What will I obey this week? (a concrete step, with a day)

   • Jesus told the woman, 'Go now and leave your life of sin.' What is he asking you to leave this week?

4. Who will I tell?

   • Who around you is walking in darkness and needs to hear that the light of the world does not condemn those who come to him?

3 Grow

Growth is God's part, not yours. Do the cycle faithfully and trust Him to give the growth (1 Corinthians 3:6–7).
