YouTube description

The Sunday lectionary gospel reading for Easter 7 in Year B is John 17.6–19, the central section of Jesus’ so-called ‘High Priestly Prayer’.

It continues to weave in a range of interconnected ideas from earlier in the gospel, drawing them together into a picture of Jesus' followers sanctified in the world and sent to proclaim the words of Jesus.

Come and join Ian and James as they explore all the issues here. Revd James Blandford-Baker is vicar of Histon and Impington, two villages just north of Cambridge. Revd Dr Ian Paul is Associate Minister of St Nic's, Nottingham, and writes the widely-read blog www.psephizo.com.

Full written commentary behind the discussion can be found on the blog each week.
