The Gospel of John? Believe.

I am really excited about our new Bible study beginning this Wednesday night at 7PM at the Annex. I'm hungry to gather together around God's word with a like-minded group of "Roadies".  This is the stuff I have really been waiting for, and I'm so glad it's happening.  

I'll be teaching from the Gospel of John.  We're starting with John primarily because of this: John - led by the Holy Spirit - really focused on the nature of Jesus and the meaning of faith in Him. (His gospel is more centered on the person of Jesus than with the ethical teaching of the kingdom).  

You know, you can't really get close to someone, until you really know them.  You can know where they work, what they did, what they said, and what others said about them, but you can't get close until you know who they are.  When we really look into the Gospel of John, we have an opportunity to get closer to Jesus than ever before.  John's gospel is a HUGE faith builder, and no other person ever wrote so much about the love of God, revealed in Christ.  

If you want to get closer to Jesus, if you want to grow in the process of believing, if you want to experience the love of God from a fresh, eyewitness perspective then join us each Wednesday night at Crossroads Annex.  You'll be glad you came!
