St. George on Yonge offers a variety of Bible study formats throughout the year. Whether in person or over Zoom, these sessions are a great opportunity to share insight and ponder the books of the Bible through a modern lens or perspective.
Gospel of John | June 30 to August 25, 2026
Starting on June 30, 2026, join us on Zoom for a nine-week exploration of The Gospel of John.
John’s Gospel is unlike any of the other Gospels. While Matthew, Mark and Luke primarily tell us what Jesus did and taught, John focuses on who Jesus is.
His purpose is clear: “These are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in His name.” (John 20:31)
This session is on Zoom every Tuesday night from June 30 to August 25, 2026, at 7 pm.

Content warning: Hosea depicts images of violence and abuse, particularly towards women.
Leader notes
One theologian, Phyllis Tribble, has aptly named some passages from Hosea as “Texts of Terror” since they have been so troubling over the years. If you’re interested, I’ve attached an article detailing the history of interpretation of Hosea and some attempts to contextualize it. I find Hosea one of the most difficult books of the Bible to read, but I believe there is still a great deal of value in gathering to talk about every single piece of scripture.
Blessings,
Ali+
