Book Synopsis

Discovering Who Jesus Is in the Book of John

When you read detective stories, you quickly learn that what may look like an irrelevant little detail may actually be the clue to solving the mystery. A good writer will put in all kinds of detail; nothing is there by accident.

Nothing in John's Gospel is there by accident either. And all the details in John are designed ultimately to unveil the mystery of Jesus. In this practical and accessible study we discover the clues John gives that we might see even more clearly the reality of who Jesus is, the new creation he inaugurates, and the difference that it all makes.

This 26-session Bible study features:

• Commentary notes on difficult passages
• Discussion questions to inspire group conversation
• A leader's guide and suggestions for getting the most out of the study
