Surprising. Shocking. Scandalous.

Jews and Samaritans were NOT supposed to interact.

Their mutual hatred went back generations.

And yet, here Jesus was, not only talking with this woman in John 4 - but asking her for water.

What was this encounter all about?

Questions That We'll Answer:

A) What was the history of the Samaritans? Who were they?

B) What had the woman done to be ostracized by her own people?

C) What did Jesus tell the woman - and why was it so encouraging?

Speaker: Rev. Dr. Toby B. Holt
