John, Ep. 34, The First Witness

Where I'm Going

My rendition of Marijohn Wilkin's beautiful folk-gospel song from 1975.

John, Ep. 36, Rendezvous in Galilee

The Gospels of Matthew and Mark say that after his resurrection Jesus instructed his disciples that he would meet them in Galilee, but it is John who tells the story of how that happened; and it is John who tells us of the restoration of Simon Peter. John 21

John, Ep. 35, The Apostles Witness

Peter, John, and the other disciples have their own encounter with the risen Lord. And, as usual, John names names and tells stories that none of the other Gospels tell--including one that unintentionally gave one disciple an unfortunate and undeserved nickname. John 19:16-42

John, Ep. 34, The First Witness

The first witness to the resurrection of Jesus was a surprise. This is Mary Magdalene's first appearance in this Gospel, but it is her most impactful moment in the Scriptures, and the story of her encounter is one of the most moving. John 20:1-18

John, Ep. 33, Jesus Crucified

John presents a vivid, stirring account of the crucifixion of Jesus. But, unlike the other Gospels which present this cluster of events from a compilation of stories, John does so as a singular eyewitness who has his own personal memory and his own sense of what is most important to tell. John 19:16-42.
