In this message, we look at Jesus' conversation with a Samaritan woman. This conversation really shook the disciples, because Jews and Samaritans hated each other. We are going to look at what Jesus said to her and what this interaction says about Jesus.

Send me a Text Message!In the last part of John 4, we find a story. I'm calling it a "seventh hour" story. It's a story of Jesus healing a man's dying son, with just a word, from long distance. The healing took place at the seventh hour. And I imagine that forever after when this family would rehearse God's faithfulness they would share their seventh hour story. A time when God came through even before they knew He came through. A time when they were given a word from Jesus and they responded. So just ask yourself, "what's my seventh hour story?" If I don't have one, perhaps it's because I haven't responded to His Word?
In John 4:46–54, a father believes Jesus' words and acts before seeing the miracle. This devotional challenges us to trust and obey God's word without waiting for proof.
Send me a Text Message!Before we jump into the miracle of John 4, Jesus' second sign. I just want to make sure we understand the connection between Jesus and the Word. This connection goes beyond metaphor into the land of mystical. It goes beyond symbolic into the land of supernatural. There is this connection between Jesus, who is called the Word, and the Word which we call our Bible. So everytime we open this book it can be like sitting down with Jesus, no matter what page we are on. So here's what I want you to do for just a few moments, even before you listen, I want you to picture yourself, with Jesus, wherever you would be the most at ease, walking by a stream in the forest. Catching up over a grande coffee. And I want you to imagine, listening to, learning from and leaning into... HIS WORDS!And then you gotta listen to me. Sorry! :)
In John 4:36–42, Jesus teaches that in God's kingdom, some plant while others harvest — and both roles are essential. The Samaritan woman planted seeds with her testimony, and Jesus harvested as many came to believe. This 2 Minute Disciple devotional invites you to joyfully serve in whatever role God assigns you, knowing that both sowing and reaping bring eternal reward.

We stream live from our Fellowship Hall again this Sunday as repairs continue to the furnace in the Sanctuary. This weekend, we follow Jesus into another encounter—this time, with a woman who comes to draw water at an ancient well. The conversation between the Samaritan woman and Jesus is one of the longest in the gospels and she proves a much more formidable conversation partner than the religious leader Nicodemus. She offers us a model for our own encounter with the living water, the source of life. Rev. Lewicki, preaching.
In John 4:32–35, Jesus reveals that His nourishment comes from doing God's will. This 2 Minute Disciple devotional invites us to wake up to the harvest around us and find joy in obedience.

Are you surprised at how Jesus works? In John 4:27-30 we see surprise all around. The disciples are surprised, the woman is surprised, the townspeople are surprised. Everyone is surprised except Jesus. As we look at this passage we'll discover important truths about how Jesus works to bring people to saving faith, truths that should encourage us greatly as we think about how God is still working today in the hearts and lives of sinners.Also on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GqBviEwl_ugSunday, February 8, 2026Pastor Kevin PierpontCalvary Church, Webberville, Michiganhttps://calvarychurch.xyz

Send me a Text Message!John 4 contains an amazing story full of life-giving themes. It's all about soul-thirst and the hunger of our hearts to live for a worthy mission. It's all about city-revivals and turning the world upside down. It's all about worship and Jesus' mission to find people who will truly worship him.And it's all about sharing the treasure of Jesus with people living in the margins of life. Who might you share that treasure with in the coming days?

Send me a Text Message!In John 4, we find a story of something Jesus "had to do." What is your "have-to-do?" The greek word translated as "had to" is often a word that signifies a divine necessity. Perhaps it was a divine necessity for Jesus to go through Samaria. God had a divine appointment set up for Jesus with a woman in Samaria. So here's the deal. Our story is shaped by our have-to. What I have to do defines me. Jesus was defined by the have-to of Father God. The heart of the Father compelled him to compassion and because of love, he had to share the gospel, the good news. So ask yourself, "What is my have-to?"

Living Water for Thirsty Souls | John 4In John 4, Jesus meets a Samaritan woman at a well and offers her something far deeper than water—a life that truly satisfies.In this message, Teaching Pastor John Ciesniewski explores one of the longest and most intimate conversations Jesus has in the Gospels, revealing a Savior who lingers in places of pain, knows our stories completely, and offers living water to thirsty souls.This teaching invites us to consider:Where we've been drawing from wells that never satisfyHow Jesus meets us with compassion, not shameWhat it means to be truly known and deeply lovedHow encountering Jesus reshapes our lives and our missionIf you've ever felt weary, stuck, or caught in the in-between, this message is an invitation to stop running, come into the light, and receive the living water Jesus freely gives.

Our reading today is John 4:46-54 and 5:1-18 – the first healing stories we'll read this season. And in this time when access to healthcare seems like its own miracle, stories that really struck us both. We remember the signs and wonders of Exodus, and their importance in building a lasting faith for the people, as we see Jesus offer signs and wonders of a different kind. We imagine what it would be to be so close to that pool of water that held within it a promise of dignity, or maybe even healing – and slowly realize over weeks and years that it will never be your turn to immerse. When Jesus heals these men, can we imagine he is offering something more than a broken fever, more than legs with the strength to walk? And can we imagine a way of healing, in this story and in our time, that's not dependent on the established systems?
