At The Movies // How to Share your Testimony

Your story matters more than you know. Drawing inspiration from the classic film "Remember the Titans," we dive into John 9 to discover how one man's testimony of healing from blindness created ripple effects that continue to impact people thousands of years later.

The blind man's encounter with Jesus reveals a profound truth about suffering—it's not always the result of our actions, but sometimes permitted so God's works can be displayed through us. When you're facing challenging circumstances and wondering "What did I do wrong?" consider that God might be positioning you for a powerful testimony that will help others find their way to Him.

What makes this story particularly compelling is that the man's healing came only after his obedience. Jesus applied mud to his eyes and instructed him to wash in the pool of Siloam—but sight was granted on the other side of that act of faith. How many breakthroughs in our own lives await our willingness to trust and obey even when it doesn't make sense?

When questioned about his transformation, the formerly blind man didn't have theological arguments or elaborate explanations. His testimony was beautifully simple: "One thing I do know: I was blind, and now I see." This pattern gives us a framework for sharing our own stories—describe your life before Christ, explain what led you to Him, and share how your life has changed since. You don't need a dramatic past of addiction or rebellion for your story to matter; every journey from spiritual death to life carries supernatural power.

Whether you're new to faith or have walked with Jesus for decades, your testimony is a weapon against darkness and a beacon for those seeking truth. Will you write it down, own it fully, and share it boldly? Someone needs to hear exactly what God has done in your life.
