The Gospel of John is different from all of the other Gospels. It starts with a word of hope: light in the midst of darkness. We are introduced to the miracles of Jesus at a wedding in Cana of Galilee. Then John immediately jumps to Jesus confronting the religious rulers of his day in the Temple. What follows from there is a story of miraculous healing, confrontation, expectation, and next steps for those who receive forgiveness from God.

You are invited to journey through the book of John in this individual study.
