"Where do we go from here?" explores the New Testament epistle known as First John—its vocabulary and structure, its poetry, its purpose, its message, and its relevance for Christians today. Bottom line: First John was written to address a crisis. Back in the day, Christians were giving up on authentic Christian community—either to return to an old-time religion or to invent a new one. In our day, we are facing a similar crisis. Christians are busy doing religion—and are neglecting authentic Christian community. Where do we go from here? The answer is right there in the New Testament epistle known as First John.
