About the story

Jesus used familiar pictures to help people understand who he was. He called himself the bread of life, the light of the world, the door and the good shepherd. He said he was the way, the truth and the life, and he compared himself to a vine with his followers as branches. When Martha was grieving for her brother Lazarus, Jesus told her, I am the resurrection and the life. Each saying helped people see a different part of his teaching: he gives life, guides people, cares for them and invites them to stay close to him. These words come from several moments in the Gospel of John. Together they help us remember Jesus' promises and the pictures he used to explain them.
