When Adam Hamilton became pastor of the United Methodist Church of the Resurrection, its membership consisted of himself and his family. Ten years later the church averages between five and six thousand worshipers per weekend. Throughout this remarkable period,...

The Gospel of John is the most deeply spiritual of the four gospels. It includes some of the loftiest and most loved verses in all the Bible: -And the Word became flesh..., - -For God so loved the world..., - -You who are without sin cast the first stone..., - -I am the resurrection and the life..., - -I am the way, and the truth, and the life.- The writing is filled with rich images and profound truths, but John notes that his aim in writing the gospel is that his readers will not only believe in Jesus Christ, but that they -may have life in his name.-
