This year we explore the Gospel stories about John the Baptist during the season of Advent.
John the Baptist is the focus of the Gospel readings on two out of four Sundays in Advent. Only two Gospels begin with Jesus’ birth, but all four preface Jesus’ ministry with John the Baptist. Some of what we know (or think we know) about him is tradition, rather than anything historical.
Explore the story of John the Baptist in this biblical study prepared by The Rev’d Dr Deborah Broome, Ministry Educator.
