Episode 7: The Gospel of John - Chapter 6

John Chapter 6 is a long one! Honestly, this chapter could be a study on its own. But these 71 verses give us such a picture of Jesus as our sustaining life-giver. I love how John juxtaposes these three stories together: the Feeding of the 5,000, Jesus walking on water, and His teaching in Galilee that He is the Bread of Life. It gives us this beautiful picture of how Jesus is the more and better manna and the fulfillment of Passover.
