Study Episode 1: Introducing John

from The Present Word · host Timothy Clifford

Today, we begin our study of John with an introduction. We'll talk a little about my personal approach to scripture, discuss genre, and then dive into an overview of the structure, themes, and puzzles in this text.  Thanks for joining me on this journey into scripture! If you're enjoying this podcast, would you share it with your friends? I love working on this project, and it brings me so much joy to see people enjoying it. I am excited to see what this will grow into, and I hope you are too.  SOURCES: Mark Allan Powell, Introducing The New Testament: A Historical, Literary, and Theological Survey 2nd ed., (Grand Rapids, MI: Baker Academic, 2018).
