The Life in the Comma
The Life in the Comma
Deepening Our Understanding of Jesus
John Bell

‘John Bell of the Iona Community has been for many years one of the most recognized voices on BBC Radio 4’s Thought for the Day, where his cogent and penetrating topical contributions reach an audience well beyond the churches.’ Justin Welby, Archbishop of Canterbury

The Apostle’s creed proclaims that Jesus Christ was ‘born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate’. But these statements, separated by only a comma, tell us very little about the One in whom ‘the fulness of God’ lived and breathed!

John Bell writes vividly of the people Jesus met; the things he said; the controversy he caused and the affection he had for the marginalised and for women in particular. Urging us to grasp more fully the great implications of the Incarnation, The Life in the Comma liberates us to celebrate Christmas as never before.

The Revd Dr John L. Bell is a member of the Iona Community, an ordained minister and a regular broadcaster on BBC Radio 4’s ‘Thought for the Day’. Over many years, he has consistently been one of the biggest draws at the Greenbelt Festival, and his work as a teacher and speaker takes him frequently into Eastern Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia and North America. In 2018 he received from Justin Welby The Thomas Cranmer Award for Worship, for his outstanding Christian witness, through hymn-writing, broadcasting and social action.
