The video below was recorded at The Lanier Theological Library. Here is a description of the video.
"In the theology of early Judaism there is “one God” who has “one
people.” The Gospel of John takes the remarkable step of including Jesus
the divine Son in the unity of the one God. The goal of Jesus’ mission
is to include humans within the open unity of the divine love. From the
intimate personal communion of the Father and the Son with believers
derives the loving unity of the people of God. Thus the revelation of
loving intimacy “within” God at the end of the Gospel’s Prologue leads
to Jesus’ prayer for the unity of his people in chapter 17."
