Summary

In this 8-part series, Dr. Youssef explores the seven “I AM” statements of Jesus in the Gospel of John. Each message reveals Christ’s divinity and His exclusive role in our salvation—from the Bread of Life and the Light of the World to the Good Shepherd, the True Vine, and the Resurrection and the Life. Through these bold declarations, Dr. Youssef unpacks how Jesus alone provides spiritual nourishment, guidance, protection, Truth, and eternal life. This series invites you to deepen your understanding of who Jesus is—and to experience the life only He can give.
