Navigating John’s “Signs”, “I am” sayings, and lengthy discourses is quite different from reading the narratives of Matthew, Mark, or Luke. From the creation story prologue through the conversations with Peter in the epilogue, John presents a mystical Jesus that we want to get to know better.

This 12-session class on the Gospel of John will be available both in-person and by ZOOM. In-person sessions will be Sunday mornings at 9:30am in the Genevations classroom (front building) beginning April 16th. ZOOM discussions will be Monday evenings at 6:30pm, beginning April 17th. You are welcome to attend either or both sessions.

A new video and handout will be available on Northgate’s website each week prior to the discussion sessions. To register, please complete the sign-up sheet in the Narthex or send an email to [email protected].

To join the ZOOM discussion, or if you have additional questions, please contact send an email to [email protected] or call the church office at 972/252-8519.
