What’s in a name? In the Bible the Holy Spirit often reveals an attribute or role of a person through names. In addition to “Jesus”, John 1 uses at least 19 different names for Jesus. Each of these names reflects an important and particular characteristic of Jesus that the Holy Spirit through John wants us to know. John introduces Jesus to us and reveals who He is before he presents the rest of the gospel.

One thing that we learned while studying through 1 Timothy is that doctrine is important. Not everybody perks up when they hear the word doctrine but what you believe & understand about God's word will have a HUGE impact on how you worship Jesus.

Our time together in the book of 1 Timothy was such a blessing to us at The Journey. As mentioned at the beginning of the series, anywhere that the advancement of the Gospel has been compromised by worldly behavior, the letter of 1 Timothy has profound relevance. With that said, this letter is useful and applicable... well, anywhere. So if you're looking for a book of the Bible that calls us to a godly lifestyle for the sake of the Gospel, look no further.

Written by a disciple of Jesus, in John we find the "cliff notes" on the life of Christ and the "encyclopedia brittanica" of what these events mean to our lives. Set apart from the synoptic gospels, John plucks 20-21 days out of the life of Christ to compel his readers to examine the evidence of Christ’s life, put faith in His works, and live a life led by God the Holy Spirit.
