Third Sunday in Lent the Samaritan Woman

0 Amens

Amen

Third Sunday in Lent: Last week we looked at the Story of Nicodemus in John 3:1-17 and this week we will look at the story of the Samaritan Woman in John 4:5-42. Then we will compare these two individuals and observe how Jesus picks up conversation with them and relates to them in very ordinary ways as individual persons. Sometimes we think of ourselves as on a search, a search for God. Yet to tell the story of our faith in a more biblical way, we would have to say that Jesus is on a search for us; initiating conversation with us. He comes to us, often at the most surprising and inopportune times, often in the strangest or most ordinary places. He comes to us, speaks to us, and in the encounter initiated by him, we are transformed in our way of seeing God and the world around us. Join us as we explore our relationship with Christ this Sunday at 5:30 PM.

The lectionary readings for the Third Sunday in Lent: Exodus 17:1-7; Psalm 95; Romans 5:1-11 and John 4:5-42.
