Encounters with Jesus in John's Gospel (Lent/Easter 2019)

During Lent and the Easter weekend, we explored eight encounters ordinary people had with God the Son, Jesus of Nazareth.
There were:

• Nicodemus the curious Religious Leader who came to "check Jesus out".
  
• A Samaritan woman at a rural water well, who Jesus could have quickly dismissed - but did not.
  
• A man who had been disabled for thirty-eight years, enabled to walk (and carry his bed!) by Jesus.
  
• A man born blind, given sight to see by Jesus.
  
• Lazarus who had died, whom Jesus raised from the dead. Mary & Martha, Lazarus' sisters.
  
• Jubilant crowds and angry Pharisees in the triumphal entry into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday.
  
• An encounter of unequal power with Pontius Pilate, the Roman Governor (Good Friday)
  
• Mary Magdalene, the first witness of the risen Jesus (Easter Day).
  

We will post summaries of these sermons here in the coming weeks. Stay tuned!
