For contemporary Christians, John’s gospel is a paradox. On the one hand, it stresses boundaries: “No one comes to the Father except through me,” while on the other it stresses community: “I have no longer called you servants, but friends.” This book encourages readers to draw out the tensions between these two perspectives to make the gospel more meaningful to their lives.
