Come and You Will See (John 1:35-51)

Andrew, Philip, Simon Peter, Nathaniel. It can be intimidating to hear the names of Jesus’ disciples. After all, if you check their Wikipedia entries, they all have “Saint” before their names! Fortunately for us, Jesus’ followers were ordinary people who made plenty of mistakes. More than that, they seemed to continually miss the point of  Read more

I Am the Voice of One (John 1:19-34)

One of the things that all four gospels have in common is the ministry of John the Baptist. He was born under miraculous circumstances to Elizabeth and Zechariah six months before Jesus was born. Mary (the mother of Jesus) and Elizabeth were relatives, which makes Jesus and John the Baptist relatives by human descent. In  Read more

Worrier or Warrior?

I’m a worrier by nature. I know it’s wrong, but I can’t help myself. All it takes is an icy road or a health scare and my thoughts spiral out of control until I have to shake myself out of my trance and reign myself back to reality. I won’t go into all the details  Read more

Grace Upon Grace (John 1:1-18)

I chose to speak on John’s gospel because it’s such a direct account of Jesus’ life . . . at least after you get through the prologue! John 1:1-18 is a highly stylized, almost poetic introduction to his Gospel. It presents Jesus not just as a baby in a manger, but as the co-creator of  Read more

Technical Difficulties Resolved (sort of)

Hi everyone, In starting this new series on the Gospel of John, I’ve encouraged all of us to read the Bible together, and to interact in the comments section of the blog. The great news is, you’ve responded. The bad new is, we’ve uncovered a bug in the comment code of our website. Fixing the  Read more

Jesus through John’s Eyes

After a lot of thinking and praying, I’ve decided to launch a big project this fall: we’re going to read through the entire Gospel of John together as a church. Over the years, we’ve spent time in Ecclesiastes and Colossians, discussed Spiritual Gifts and Virtues, and examined the Life of Elijah, to name a few  Read more
