Connect with the Gospel of John during Lent
First Presbyterian Church of Grove City
Lent is a season of slowing down, listening closely, and making room for Jesus to shape us again. This year, we invite you to connect with the Gospel of John in a way that fits your schedule and your season. Choose one path or mix and match. All three options follow the same journey through John.

John: The Gospel of Light and Life is a 6-week study of the gospel of John by Rev Adam Hamilton, a prolific writer and the senior pastor of The United Methodist Church of the Resurrection in Leawood, Kansas. Rev Wendy McCormick will lead the study during Lent. Several of our scripture readings in Lent come from John, so this will help deepen our understanding of this gospel.
