    Do we want to be as evangelistic as Jesus, then we need to learn what it means to love and accept and give the good news to "the woman at the well."

    What if “the woman at well” shows up at church today? John 4: 4-42 Love this story… 4 He had to go through Samaria on the way. 5 Eventually he came to the Samaritan village of Sychar, near the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph. 6 Jacob’s well was there; and Jesus, tired from the ...read more
