When going through a book of the Bible there is never enough time to cover everything that could be covered in each sermon or community life gathering. These resources have been curated by our teaching team and staff for those who may want additional content.
Below you will find various videos, podcasts, books, and articles that will allow you to go deeper each week into the study of John. While we believe each resource is helpful, all the thoughts and points are the original creators and may not be fully held by our team.
Gospel of John Podcast
Listen to John Rosensteel and Josh Butler discuss how our four campus teaching team approached teaching on the Gospel of John during this 15 week series. They describe it as the most accessible of the Gospels – "shallow enough for the new believer to wade in, but also deep enough for the mature believer to scuba dive in."
Josh Butler, Aline Bahamondez, and Megan Lemmons discuss John 4:43-54 and the importance of community when facing challenges in our lives

To Ponder:

- A question to pray over, journal about or reflect on: Where have you whispered “If you had only been here…” to Christ? Like Martha, what circumstances of life have left you feeling like God has left the building? Bring that memory to Jesus in prayer and ask him to speak into that experience as the Resurrection and the Life. How might the light of his truth confront the darkness of lies the enemy wants to speak into your life through that experience?
