John chapter 8 is another familiar passage that contains one of the most talked about stories of the Bible- the story of the woman caught in adultery. I believe because it so beautifully displays the character of Jesus. In the aftermath of the interaction with the pharisees, scribes, and the adulterous woman a long andContinue reading “Gospel of Love 8 of 21”

Gospel of Love 7 of 21
This long and meandering passage is about Jesus going up to Jerusalem for the Feast of Booths(<-link). When the time came for the feast, Jesus’ unbelieving brothers were encouraging Him to go up to Jerusalem and show off. They kinda mocked Him saying things like ‘don’t you want to be famous?!’ As Jesus went upContinue reading “Gospel of Love 7 of 21”
Gospel of Love 6.5 of 21
These passage from John 6:26-71 is so very profound I almost sweat at the challenge of writing about them. For the most part each word and verse are so very profound that my interpretation or opinion about them is bound to be short sighted. With that being said, I highly recommend you read them forContinue reading “Gospel of Love 6.5 of 21”

Gospel of Love 3 of 21
The first section of John chapter 3 is one of the best known stories in the New Testament. The pharisee Nicodemus comes to Jesus to chat about His ministry. Jesus says some really profound things about being born from above, or other translations say born again. Jesus begins in unfold the dramatic difference the kingdomContinue reading “Gospel of Love 3 of 21”
Gospel of Love 2 of 21
I feel like I should mention here that it is very possible to take one of the many verses we have already covered and write books about those single verses. Writing one page devotions on chapters are pretty broad strokes. So, as you read in your personal time and are thinking about the verses fromContinue reading “Gospel of Love 2 of 21”
Gospel of Love 1 of 21
The following series of blog posts are going to be somewhat real and authentic, spontaneous commentaries on the Gospel of John. I’m not into being impressive, so don’t expect some kind of eloquent exegesis of this Gospel, you’ve got books for that. This is going to be real, hopefully inspiring, and maybe even tough toContinue reading “Gospel of Love 1 of 21”
