In his gospel, John gives eyewitness details that help us "be there" with Jesus. Now, Michael Card, with his unique blend of artistic craft and scholarly research--including his own translation of the gospel from the original Greek text--introduces us to the apostle and his gospel in a fresh new way. Scholarly insights and imagination make John's stories come to life and help us know in our hearts that his friend Jesus is truly the Son of God. "But these things have been written so you might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in His name" (John 20:31).

Michael Card is a popular Christian songwriter, recording artist, and author. He has penned some of Christian music’s most cherished songs, including “El-Shaddai.” He has released twenty-three recordings, has written or co-authored fifteen books, including The Walk, has earned five Dove Awards, and nineteen of his songs have reached number one on Christian radio charts. Michael and his wife, Susan, have four children and live in Franklin, Tennessee.
