Thirsty souls, looking for something more in life, are all around us. And we have the water they seek? Here's how we can make a difference for them and for eternity!

One of the questions I ask, and even ask now, as I near the end of my life, is “So what? So what? In other words, what difference did my life make, for good or for ill? I suspect I’m not alone in asking these questions. I think one of our greatest needs in life is for meaning, for significance, ...read more

Being A Radical

Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Jul 26, 2022

Reform is what Jesus was looking for. He was called a radical. The Pharisees took notice of what He was doing. Corruption was destroying Judaism. Is it happening to Christianity today? When humans create an organization eventually corruption sneaks in.

Being a Radical John 4:1-6 Rev. Dr. Michael Harvey Koplitz John 4:1 And Jesus knew, that the Pharisees had heard; that he made many disciples, and baptized more than John. 2 Yet Jesus himself did not baptize but his disciples. 3 And he left Judaea, and went again into Galilee. 4 And in going, he ...read more

Be Loving To All Minorities Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Oct 30, 2021

Some pick and choose whom they feel is worthy of fellowship; basing their judgments on a person’s skin color, nationality, or gender. Jesus, however, was careful to give everyone a chance to believe in Him, no matter what their background.

The apostle Paul once said that “there is no partiality with God” (Romans 2:11); and he also declared, “There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus” (Gal 3:28). James admonished, “My brethren, do not hold ...read more

Jesus' Water Is That Good (John 4:1-15) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 15, 2022

Jesus is greater than Jacob; his water is also better. It gives joy, and an abundant life, and leads to knowing Jesus and his Father (John 17:3).

Let's start this morning by simply rereading 4:1-3. These three verses mark a transition in John to a new story: (4:1) Then, when Jesus knew that the Pharisees heard that Jesus, many more disciples he is making and baptizing than John-- although Jesus himself was not baptizing, ...read more

What If The Fields Are White? (John 4:27-42) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 20, 2022

If they are, we need to be far more bold, in intentional, about pointing people to Jesus. Bonus discussion of how Greek imperfect verbs work.

Today's message was a little short, so I'm going to try to cheat a little at the start, and explain something that may open up the Bible to you in really unexpected ways. And then, I'll try to show you a little how it works, and how cool this is, as I go through today's passage. ...read more

Come And Experience His Welcome

Contributed by John Dobbs on Jan 28, 2022

If Jesus is powerful, passionate, and loving but not welcoming, then we are left helpless! Maybe no story in the NT expresses His welcome more than the one for today: The Samaritan Woman at the Well.

Do You Show Partiality?

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Feb 26, 2022

This message looks at four different types of partiality that take place in churches: Class, Geographic, Racial, and Denominational discrimination. Prejudice in the church displeases the Lord, it is unjust and a complete travesty!

Last Sunday was recognized on the SBC calendar as Racial Reconciliation Sunday, and so I want to share something applicable today. I’ve entitled our message, “Do You Show Partiality?” and this is actually a question for each of us here today. According to Noah Webster, in the 1828 American ...read more

A Conversation With A Woman At The Well

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 15, 2022

Today we want to look at a conversation between the Lord Jesus and a woman at the well. We find this conversation recorded in the gospel of John.

As many of you know, John is not included in the synoptic gospels. WHY? The Lord’s earthly ministry was around 3 1/2 years. • The synoptic gospels, Matthew, Mark, and Luke deal with the last year of His ministry. They dealt with a lot of things in His ministry, but not in much detail. • The ...read more

"the Woman At The Well" Series

Jesus came to make salvation accessible to all. He came to remove any barriers. Here He was breaking down the barrier of sin between man and God. The water the woman had come to draw from the well could only be obtained through hard labor. There was no button to push on the fountain.

“Going Public with Our Faith” John 4:1-26 Last week we welcomed we welcomed in the New Year by talking about what it means to go public with our faith. In the Scripture today we find that Jesus having gone very public with Hi ministry, was now traveling. He had to go through Samaria. While ...read more

Filling The Longing Heart

Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Apr 2, 2022

People carry deep longings in their hearts. Only Jesus can fill those longings. We must tell longing people about Jesus.

Here is this woman. She shows up at the village well at the sixth hour. That’s noon, the hottest part of the day. The other women came that morning, when it was cooler. But she couldn’t come then. She didn’t want to see them. Really, she didn’t want them to see her. It would be too painful. Why? ...read more
