GOSPEL OF JOHN

 It’s been called the “spiritual gospel.”John’s gospel account of Jesus is intended to tell the story inviting the reader on a journey of personal transformation. The journey is intensely personal but also engages how we relate to others toward the formation of relationships of profound friendship and love. More than any other writing in the bible, this gospel uses the word ‘love’, and more than any other gospel, John presents a Jesus wanting to teach his followers how to form richly fulfilling relationships among each other. Out of such personal transformation,followers then become sources of light in a world of darkness.
