This review is from: Readings in St. John's Gospel (Paperback)

William Temple, former Archbishop of Canterbury, offers reflections from his readings of St. John's Gospel. Temple does not set out to provide a critical commentary of the gospel but rather more personal devotional reflections. He writes in the introduction that he is writing as he perceives the Holy Spirit speaking to his mind and heart through John's gospel. As such an erudite scholar, his reflections are also filled with scholarly insights in addition to writing touching the heart and soul. His insights are presented by chapter and most verses and help one gain a better understanding of the gospel and to come to a closer relationship the the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Temple opens the book in simple yet profound ways that would be helpful to Christians of all levels of maturity. This book is definitely worth buying and reading.
