Meet Jesus, the Master From Above: Meditations on St John’s Gospel

Description

Here you have a series of insightful meditations on Jesus, the Master from Above, based on the Gospel of St John. John looks at the historical facts in the life of Jesus through the prism of his advanced theology and shares his fascinating vision with us. The object of his Gospel is the person of Jesus; he places in evidence, quite emphatically, the divinity of Christ, the Son of the Father, and at the same time reveals his sweet and wonderful humanity. The lively personality of Jesus, fully divine and fully human, leaps out of the pages of John’s Gospel, looks at your eyes and talks to you. It is the same Jesus you meet in this book, very useful for individual and group meditation, for preaching and spiritual guidance. Each chapter is systematically and helpfully structured: a theme, then a relevant Gospel text, a brief note on its context, a meditative reflection on the text, points for application, questions for introspection and finally a concluding prayer, all in harmony with the theme. You will find the book pleasant, practical and profitable.
