Written That You May Believe

We’ve been reading the Gospel of John for 2 months, and reading the Gospels since January 1. This is why:

Jesus performed many other signs in the presence of his disciples, which are not recorded in this book. But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.
— John 20:30-31

May God use your reading to bring you life in 2020!

P.S. I’m not going to write a post on John’s epilogue, which we read on Monday and Tuesday of next week. Check back Wednesday for our 1st post in reading Genesis,

John 20:19-31

Why I Love Simon Peter

When Mary Magdalene tells Simon Peter and the beloved disciple that she’s seen the Risen Jesus, he doesn’t believe her—would you?—but he runs to the tomb anyway.

That’s why I love Peter: if there is even the smallest chance it could be true, he wants to investigate it for himself.
