Reading Paths
A few chapters, walked in order.
Not a plan to complete or a streak to keep. Each path is a short, deliberate route — every chapter chosen, set in an order, and given a line on why it stands where it does.

The classic starting point. Four chapters of John, four encounters — the Word made flesh, a wedding in Cana, a teacher who comes by night, and a woman at a well who becomes the first preacher.
iJohn 1The Word became flesh and lived among us.
iiJohn 2Water into wine — the first sign, at a village wedding.
iiiJohn 3Nicodemus comes by night, and hears of new birth.
ivJohn 4The woman at the well — seen, known, and sent.Soon
Each Gospel opens the same story differently — a genealogy, a shout in the wilderness, a careful investigation, a hymn before time. Read the four openings side by side and hear how one gospel speaks in four voices.
iMatthew 1A genealogy — the story planted in Israel’s soil.
iiMark 1No overture. A voice in the wilderness, and it begins.
iiiLuke 1A careful account — and the songs of Mary and Zechariah.
ivJohn 1Before Bethlehem: in the beginning was the Word.
These paths are laid out but their chapters are still being written. They’ll open as the studies behind them are finished.
