In September 2024 we started a slow journey through John's Gospel.
Our aim was to discover as much as possible of what John wanted us to learn about Jesus.
John sets out his hopes for us, his readers, toward the end of his Gospel...
"Jesus performed many other signs in the presence of his disciples, which are not recorded in this book. But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name." (John 20:30-31)
We're still on our journey and we're trying to capture at least some of the things we've learned so far in a series of short videos.
We hope these short videos, and the questions we have posed on our journey, might be a useful resource to use in your own personal times spent getting to know Jesus better.
You could also use them as short prompts for conversation if you happen to try reading through John's Gospel with a friend. These resources might be really helpful for that:
On that note, if you happen to be in our neighbourhood, and think you might be interested in reading through John's Gospel over a coffee (other beverages are available), feel free to get in touch via email.
