You Tube Theology

The lectionary reading for Easter 6 in Year B is the second half of what appears to be a single section of Jesus’ teaching, in his ‘Farewell Discourse’, John 15.9–17.

On the one hand, it seems strange to have divided this teaching into its two halves. On the other, whilst there is a continuing overarching theme of being fruitful whilst abiding in the vine, there are several big new theological ideas that are weaved into Jesus’ teaching here.

Come and join Ian and James as they explore all the issues here. Revd James Blandford-Baker is vicar of Histon and Impington, two villages just north of Cambridge. Revd Dr Ian Paul is Associate Minister of St Nic's, Nottingham, and writes the widely-read blog www.psephizo.com.

Full written commentary behind the discussion can be found on the blog each week.
