The John Group 2025
Living WaterStarting May 2025 — 'Early' and 'Later' group
In 2025, the John Group will be contemplating John’s Gospel, chapter 7.
Within the setting of the Jewish feast of Tabernacles, John 7 and 8 reveal more about the identity of Christ Jesus and the increasing challenges encountered in the reaction of religious orthodoxy to these revelations.
In John 7, Christ tells us he is living water, and in John 8, that he is the light of the world. What does this speak to within us about our emergent I AMness?

Two groups are offered. Both online small-groups will meet monthly via Zoom video conferencing, usually on the second Monday of each group, May to November. There will be an ‘early’ group and a ‘later’ group. The fee is $245 payable at the commencement the group, or seven monthly instalments of $35 each.
