"Unlock the hidden depths of John's Gospel. The leader guide contains discussion questions and session plans for a six-week study of The Gospel of John, by Amy-Jill Levine. It includes opening and closing prayers, optional activities, and session goals for each week and is designed to be used with the book and DVD. John's Gospel offers readers a new language--of being born anew, of living water, of wind and spirit, of the ""I am""--that enhances how we understand the divine, how we experience the world, and how we participate in the mystery of faith. With her characteristic wit and charm, Amy-Jill Levine introduces readers to the world of the Gospel of John by unpacking the stories in their original context, along with examining how the text is read today. This book considers the Gospel of John in its entirety, moving through the Gospel and exploring the prologue, the wedding at Cana, the Samaritan woman at the well and the woman caught in adultery, the healing of the man at the pool and the man born blind, foot washing, Mary Magdalene and Doubting Thomas, and the Lamb of God."
