Introduction

I'm posting notes on short passages from the gospels. Come and join me in reading the passages and leaving thoughts and comments. These notes can be used individually, or they can be used to systematically work through a whole book, or all four gospels. A few of the notes are now also on my JHM site, and more will follow. There are links to jump between the two versions, the text is identical but this site (CTG) is designed to make serial study easier.

I've made a start in MatthewMark, and now John; it will be an interesting journey. You can start from any point, all the old posts remain and new ones will appear once a week or so.

Alan Hirsch has developed a model for vibrant, missional church life and at the heart of the model is the idea that Christ should be central in all that we do. Few people would argue with that! One habit that he recommends to help us keep Jesus at the heart of our lives is to cycle through the gospels as part of our Bible reading. Not only that, he recommends reading all of the Bible 'through the lens of the gospels'.

I agree with that; and it's where this blog comes in.
