 General Description:

St. John’s Gospel is considered the most theological of all the four Gospels. The portrait of the Messiah in John differs from Matthew, Mark and Luke’s portrayal in that it presents a mystical quality that is richin truth and loaded with Catholic theology. The Evangelist’s explicit purpose was to lead listeners to a deeper belief and more abundant life by learning of the wondrous words and saving acts of the Word-Made-Flesh.

Open Your Eyes of Faith

In this series, The Book of John, Scripture scholar and Catholic apologist Michael Barber presents an illuminating study that captures many of the penetrating insights contained in the Fourth Gospel. The lively and informative presentations offer an extraordinary overview of Christ’s saving mission now entrusted to the Church. Get ready to listen and learn as your eyes of faith are literally opened to see the Messianic mission in a new and refreshing way. You’ll be newly inspired to delve deeper into God’s Word by meditating upon many of the familiar stories from St. John’s account of Jesus and His Apostles.

You’ll be amazed as the penetrating insights and revealing details are highlighted to unleash the power of this Gospel as never before. Now Michael Barber instructs you to “read between the lines” of the verses as you make new connections between various passages in the Old Testament, the Synoptic Gospels and other New Testament writings. By studying John’s Gospel, you’ll come to a greater appreciation of many things often taken for granted such as the role of the Holy Spirit as “Advocate,” of Christ’s Real Presence in the Eucharist, and of Jesus’ sacrificial death upon the Cross.
