Gospel Reading: John 3:16-18

“God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him might not perish, but might have everlasting life.”

John 3:16 is sometimes referred to as “the Gospel in miniature” – it encapsulates, in one sentence, the very purpose of the Incarnation. God came down to us in human form because he wishes for us to participate in eternal life with him. Although it may seem that the academic year is perpetual, it has more than likely either concluded or is about to conclude for you. In order to recharge yourself this summer, reacquaint yourself with the Gospels.

Are you able to set aside a few minutes per day this summer to read through the Gospels? (At two chapters per day, you can read all eighty-nine by late July.)
