Today we’re looking at Jesus’ remarkable encounter with the Samaritan woman at Jacob’s well in John 4. It’s the longest conversation recorded in the Bible that Jesus has with anyone—man or woman. He disrupts the status quo by speaking with her, crossing cultural and gender boundaries. In this encounter, we witness the boundless nature of God’s grace and love. Jesus challenges us to break down our own prejudices and expectations and to see the worth of every soul.
There are differences between male and female…but the bible doesn’t begin with the differences, it begins with sameness. In Genesis 3 we see “the fall,” where humanity ran from God and rebelled against Him. Since that moment humanity has been at war not just with God but with itself. This is why the Gospel of Jesus Christ is so important, because Jesus came to rescue us from all of our rebellion and what separated us from God and each other. We do this series, to speak and show the transforming work of God in the world and the restorative work He does in HUMANKIND.
