John’s gospel seems to be quite different though, focusing a lot on Jesus’ WORDS.

Quite correct. John's gospel is not one of the synoptic gospels and specifically points out Jesus' divinity and authority as creator.

John is also focused primarily on the time before and after the public Galilean ministry (only the tail end of chapter 4 through the beginning of chapter 7 fall into this period), and much more concerned with pre-Passion events in Jerusalem and Judea (chapter 5 falls into this category, along with 3, 8-11 and portions of 2, 4, and 7).
