There are so many distractions to following Jesus. John's gospel shows us a final example of how to deal with these at the very end of his gospel.

John 21:18-23 Lord, What About Him? Riding the Inner City buses is an educational experience. One thing you learn early on is this: What you do for one you have to do for all.

Is the gospel necessarily good news? You may never have thought about that question, but if you do ...read more
