Welcome to our Bible Book Club blog! We're reading the New Testament over 8 months (April - November 2008). See the sidebar for a listing of the readings for each month. This site is a place to check in, chat about our readings and get the latest news on where and when we are meeting. We hope you'll check in and post frequently.

The book of John is the most beautiful portrait of Jesus. In this Gospel Jesus describes Himself with the 7 "I am" sayings. (I am the bread of life; the light of the world; the door of the sheep; the good shepherd; the resurrection and the life; the way, the truth and the life; the true vine. These self descriptions are incredibly lovely and entirely complete in understanding His love and care for us. These "I am" pictures also complete the self description by God the Father in the Old Testament. (Exod. 3:14)
(I am Nicholas's mom.)
That is so cool, Nancy! Thanks for pointing that out. I wonder how each of us would describe our "I Ams"?
