2Susan Heck expounds on the book of First John with the same love and tenderness the Apostle John used in writing the book. The theme of the book is expressed well in 1 John 2:1: "My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may not sin. But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous." This is an excellent small group Bible study for women.
