Description: The Gospel of John is the most complex of the Gospels. Written a few decades after the synoptic Gospels, it presents Jesus as the glorified Christ, the one who has come from above and will return there again. In doing so, John draws on various literary tools, such as metaphor and imagery, intimate prayers that Jesus has with the Father, and long discourses in which Jesus reflects on his role on earth and in heaven. The Gospel author offers us also three additional epistles that shed light on early developments in the Johannine community and the early church. The hope is that this retreat will help us encounter the risen Christ of faith in a personally relevant and meaningful way.
