Preachers find themselves turning to John's Gospel time and time again to proclaim its wonderful message about Jesus. This primer explores the main themes of John's own teaching, as preserved in the gospel he wrote for us.

John makes clear is key purpose in chapter 20 of his gospel. This stated intention must guide the exposition of his words today. It shows a way to explore the text so that the Christian preacher may expound the message as John intended he should.

Many commentaries are written on John, but few focus directly on the needs of the preacher and congregation - this book is aimed precisely there. John's own key is used to unlock four famous chapters of his Gospel from the preacher's perspective.
