All of us want to live life to its fullest. Medical science seeks to add years to our lives, but only Jesus can add life to our years. This is why the Gospel of John was written: “But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name.” (John 20:31) This Gospel was written so that we might believe—and then grow in our faith. The word used in John 20:31 for “believing” speaks of a continual action. So John was saying that the more we believe, the more life we will experience. Join pastor and evangelist Greg Laurie in his first Bible commentary on a journey to the first century as he explores selected passages from John 1–5. As you follow the early days of Jesus’ earthly ministry and listen in on His conversations with seeking, hurting, and lonely people, you can find hope and encouragement as you discover God’s great love for humanity—and for you.
