Disciples
January 26th, 2013 by RyanToday we are going to try and wrap up chapter one of the Gospel of John. At this rate it will take us one year and nine months to finish out this book.

Two Sundays ago we studied about John the Baptizer. We learned a little about his backstory and his role in the more important Jesus story. We read about how the Jews had sent some people to figure out what this John the Baptizer guy was all about. We ended with John bearing witness to his disciples that Jesus is the Son of God and is the Savior that was sent by God to redeem humankind from sin.
Today as we continue and conclude in this chapter we are going to take a look at Disciples.
