John Kavanaugh, SJ
The body is a big problem for us, whether we want to admit it or not. Even the late, great psychologist Abraham Maslow—no churchy or Pauline preacher to say the least—warned us of the body’s degradation in our time.
John J. Pilch
John the evangelist has compacted the development of discipleship into several striking scenes.
Andrew was the first to become an apostle. It was he who opened the gates of Christ’s teaching. He surpassed the hopes of all by being the first to embrace the one awaited by all.
Dennis
Hamm, SJ
It takes the full length of the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke to gradually reveal that Jesus is Messiah and Son of God; and the Acts of the Apostles makes it clear that the disciples really didn't “get it.”
Reginald H. Fuller
True followers of John the Baptist, those who really listen to
their master, leave him and follow Jesus.
