Episode Description from the Publisher

On the night before his death, Jesus told his friends, "It is to your advantage that I go away." Then he told them the truth: in this world you will have trouble, but take heart. John 16 is the most honest chapter in the Bible about sorrow, and the most hopeful. Why Jesus said his leaving was good news The Helper: what the Holy Spirit does that Jesus in the flesh couldn't "A little while": the puzzle that confused the disciples The woman in labor: why Jesus uses pain and joy in the same picture "You will be scattered": why Jesus tells them they'll fail before it happens "I have overcome the world": the verse that closes the whole upper-room discourse
