John’s gospel in an accessible, shareable and easy-to-use format.


The Word One to One has everything you need to take a friend through the book of John. Each booklet divides the gospel into accessible, bitesize chunks - called “episodes” - which take 20 - 30 minutes to work through together. Each episode takes a small section of John’s gospel to read through verse-by-verse. The notes accompanying each section contain everything you need to guide you through the gospel of John - including the passage, possible questions and notes which can serve as a framework for your conversation.
