THE BELOVED DISCIPLE Following John To the Heart of Jesus

Beth Moore is a well-rounded biblical scholar who is less concerned with The Word than with the human narrative and historical context of these moving stories. The focus is John the Baptist, the beloved disciple and anonymous author of the Fourth Synoptic Gospel and the Book of Revelation. Overall, this is a study of how anyone can have a trusting, loving relationship with the Son of God. Both historical and preachy, Moore's powerfully told story illuminates the devotion between Jesus and John. The drama seems relentless at times, but just when the listener tires, the author throws out a new angle or lesson that reawakens interest. T.W.
