John Hebenton's Podcast

Whirlpools into Abiding

John Hebenton

The writer of John’s gospel is not a linear Greek thinker. He presents Jesus using older circular ways of teaching – circling around a topic, with each pass going deeper into the abundance of layers of meaning, into the abundance at the heart of the message, How does that help us read John 15:9-17                 ?

How does this help us be open to all the image of Jesus the true vine, we are the branches offers as we continue this season of having our minds blown and letting our imaginations run wild.

  • How might we learn about love by supporting each other in this time of grief and loss
  • How might that open us up to the possibilities of this moment?
