The Horizon of Faith

Ever been struck by the distinctiveness of John‘s Gospel in comparison to the other Gospels? Ever wondered what might be discovered if the entire Gospel was read or digested without long gaps between passages? Enjoy finding connections between different parts of a text? If the answer to these questions is "yes," or for those who are naturally inquisitive and explorative, then this book is for such readers. John‘s Gospel is dynamic, sharp, and subtle, both containing beautiful connections between its different parts and consistently developing threads of theological interest. This book focuses on five such threads in particular, considering what the Gospel has to say about origin and destination, about place and time, about participation and the nature of God, about journeying, and about what is yet to unfold. It explores the rich connectedness within the Gospel, and its relation to some important life questions, from the perspective of a priest, theologian, and preacher who has found a deep intrigue for this Gospel in particular--an intrigue noted by others who encouraged him to share this with a wider audience.
