The entire book focuses in on just one single verse from the Bible--John 3:16. I had the pleasure of reading an advanced copy, sent to Family Christian ...read more

    The "woman at the well" is a renowned Biblical story even though the woman's name is never mentioned, but that is because she never was the central figure in that story. It is the "Word Incarnate" who is revealed.
