This sermon explores the desire of King David to have his presence in the house of the Lord be the one thing he desired above all else. While the model of the temple worship no longer exists, the heart of being near to God, gathered with his people in the local church still remains a priority of God for all believers. There are a number of factors today that keep people from prioritizing church, but the reasons to stay connected with the Body of Christ are too great to ignore.This week also marks "Ownership Sunday", inviting everyone of participation at Living Water as an "owner" pursuing three commitments: to Grow- through large and small group interactions, to Serve- by letting God use you for His Purposes, to Give- by trusting God and stewarding every portion of your life including finances. 

Nicki shares an amazing message of hope and challenge to bring forth 'living water" from Jesus' meeting of a woman at a well.

Jesus is Living Water and we get to share in that living water.

We need living water because other ways we try to get satisfaction do not satisfy. The living water from Jesus is the life-giving and fully satisfying Holy Spirit, God's presence within us. It is never earned, only received, through God's grace - we thirst for it and drink deep from it.

John 4:1-42 As we continue to follow the life of Jeus in the Gospel of John, we come upon his meeting the Samaritan woman at the well. He reveals Himself as Messiah to a broken woman - and transforms a whole town. In John 3, Jesus offered eternal life to a wealthy Council leader. Now he offers it to the outcast and overlooked. Eternal life is available to all. Website: immanuelde.com Facebook: immanuelchurchwilmington YouTube: Immanuel Church Wilmington DE

In John 4:11–19, Jesus speaks of living water that becomes a bubbling spring within, giving eternal life. This 2 Minute Disciple devotional reminds us that Jesus loves to go beyond surface conversations, revealing our true condition so we can be healed.

Wednesday, February 4, 2026 - John 7:1-52 | Jesus's teaching highlights the Holy Spirit as "living water" and the timing of His ministry, even amid division among the people. Adults can explore the Feast of Tabernacles' cultural context, reflect on His invitation to drink deeply from the Spirit, and consider Nicodemus's defense of Him.

In John 4:4–10, Jesus asks a Samaritan woman for a drink, breaking cultural barriers to offer her living water. This 2 Minute Disciple devotional challenges us to seek out the lonely and disregarded, engaging them in conversations that point to Jesus.

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.

Why would Jesus stop for someone everyone else ignored? In the book of John, Jesus intentionally crosses barriers of prejudice, reputation, race, and sin to reach a lost soul with Living Water. Join Jim Scudder on InGrace as he reveals how Christ seeks the lost—no matter who they are or where they come from.

This episode introduces the release the first edition of a new educational curriculum—Dwelling in You Richly!  I wrote it when I first began as a parish pastor; the goal was to immerse children in the Living Water of God's Word.  The title itself refers to that goal; it is based on Colossians 3:16: "Let the Word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another with all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God." Eventually, resources will be available from pre-K through high school graduation. The high school program is the first to be released; the first term is now available. Who can use this?  I initially wrote it for my congregation.  However, it is applicable to Lutheran schools, homeschool communities, or home use.  You can find more information, as well as samples, on the website.

The first part of this year, we are studying the Gospel of John. We continue this series with Senior Pastor Dr. Tyler Smiley speaking from John chapter 4 about what Jesus means when he speaks about Living Water with the Samaritan woman at the well.

What physical water is to the body and to the planet, spiritual water is to the soul. Pastor Nichole begins a new series on the names of the Holy Spirit, and how understanding them can supercharge our prayer lives and impact our neighborhoods and communities.

For most of us, water is rarely something we think about. It's as close as the kitchen sink, the refrigerator door, or the bottle beside us at work. But for millions of people around the world, clean water remains out of reach—and the consequences stretch far beyond thirst.Jesus once said, “And if anyone gives even a cup of cold water to one of these little ones… that person will certainly not lose their reward” (Matthew 10:42). On today's episode of Faith & Finance, Aaron Griggs of Cross International shows us just how literal—and transformative—that cup of water can be.Globally, 2.2 billion people still lack access to safe drinking water. In places like Zambia, Malawi, and Uganda, the crisis is especially severe. Women and children often walk long distances every day to gather water from open pits shared with animals. The water is contaminated, illness is common, and the time lost reinforces generational poverty. Girls miss school, mothers miss work, and entire communities struggle to flourish.This quarter, FaithFi is partnering with Cross International, a Christ-centered humanitarian ministry working alongside local churches and Christian leaders to meet urgent needs and create sustainable change. Their work in Sub-Saharan Africa is showing what can happen when clean water meets the living water of the gospel.After a well is installed in a village, physical health improves quickly—but the long-term effects are even more remarkable. Hours once spent fetching water are freed for school, work, farming, and small business. Women gain economic opportunity. Children gain education. And through Cross International's ministry partners, families are introduced to Jesus, often receiving their first Bibles in their own language.One woman in Zambia described this transformation with simple gratitude:“I never knew that I would be where I am now. My family is healthier, and my children are in school. God has blessed us.”Another woman, Grace, shared how access to water restored not only her family but also her church. For years, her congregation met under a tree because there wasn't enough water for construction. After a new well was installed, the church was rebuilt, children joined their parents in worship, and an entire community experienced renewed dignity and hope. Her favorite Scripture says it best:“Whoever believes in me… rivers of living water will flow from within them.” — John 7:38Cross International's work meets physical needs, but always in the name of Christ. Water is a doorway—opening opportunities for flourishing today and pointing to eternal life in Him. That's why FaithFi is partnering with Cross International this quarter to serve 250 children across Malawi, Zambia, and Uganda, providing not only clean water but also food, education, and the hope of the gospel.For just $62, one child receives these essential resources for a year. Every gift supports not just a child, but often an entire family and community, moving them toward long-term stability and lasting hope.Clean water changes everything—it restores dignity, strengthens families, and reflects the life-giving love of Christ.To learn more or to join us in this effort, visit: FaithFi.com/Cross.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I have a question about the ‘Trump Accounts' for newborns.

Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla for January 28, 2026 explores Psalm 42:1–2 and the deep spiritual thirst that marks every human soul. “Panting for Living Water” reflects on the image of the deer longing for flowing streams and connects it to our God-given desire for the living God. This Christian daily devotion offers biblical encouragement for those who feel dry, weary, distant, or spiritually restless. Rooted in Scripture and centered on Christ, this devotional reminds us that our deepest longing is not for relief or answers, but for God Himself. Jesus alone is the living water who satisfies the thirsty soul through His Word, forgiveness, and presence. This Lutheran devotional is designed to strengthen faith, offer comfort, and draw listeners back to Christ in daily repentance and trust.Support this ministry:https://buymeacoffee.com/whitegandalphbuymeacoffee.com/whitegandalphHashtags:#DailyDevotion#ChristianDevotional#Psalm42#LivingWater#BibleMeditation

Thursday January 22, 2026II Week After EpiphanyToday's readings draw our attention to where true security and fulfillment are found. In Genesis 11:1–9, humanity's attempt to build greatness apart from God reveals the danger of pride and self-reliance, reminding us that unity without submission to Him always leads to confusion. Hebrews 6:13–20 points us to a far better foundation—God's unchanging promise—offering a *sure and steadfast anchor for the soul* grounded in His faithfulness. And in John 4:1–15, Jesus meets a weary woman with an even deeper promise: living water that truly satisfies the thirst of the human heart.This episode invites us to stop striving for security on our own and instead anchor our hope in God's promises, drinking deeply from the life only Christ can give.

In this episode of the Pocket Theology podcast, the team dives deep into the heart of biblical interpretation, the value of education, and the beautiful messiness of the early church.Pulling from the opening themes of the Philippians series, "Whatever is Beautiful," the conversation moves from the intimidation of the pulpit to the "secret" of finding joy in a diverse community. They challenge the modern tendency to seek "special revelations" and instead invite listeners to join the 2,000-year-old conversation of the global Church.In this episode, we discuss:Preaching and Pressure: An honest look at the "love-hate relationship" with the pulpit and the responsibility of having "something to say" rather than just "having to say something." The "Bubble" of Isolation: Why reading only what we agree with limits our growth and the importance of expanding our "awareness" of the broader Christian narrative. Biblical vs. Systematic Theology: Using the "Heuristic of the Puzzle," we explore how a narrative framework (Promise, Fulfillment, Consummation) helps make sense of the story of God without getting pigeonholed into rigid systems. The Fellowship of the Gospel: Redefining "Koinonia" from a social "hang out" to a radical partnership of differing people united around the cross—much like the unlikely fellowship of the Ring. The "Good Work" in Progress: Reclaiming Philippians 1:6—not just as a personal promise of growth, but as a collective guarantee that Jesus will never give up on His Church. Whether you are a seasoned scholar or just "Bible-curious," this episode is an invitation to get low, stay humble, and let the Holy Spirit expand your vision of what it means to be the Church.

At a forgotten well in the heat of the day, Jesus speaks to a woman marked by shame, thirst, and unanswered longing. He doesn't avoid her story. He meets her in it. What unfolds is a conversation about living water, true worship, and the kind of grace that reaches the deepest places of the soul.This message explores how Jesus sees us fully and offers life freely. It shows how real transformation begins when we stop managing our image and start responding honestly to His voice. The woman leaves her water jar behind and runs toward her city with joy. Encounter does that. It loosens our grip on old patterns and sends us out changed.If you've ever felt overlooked, worn down, or spiritually dry, this passage speaks directly to you. Jesus still meets people at wells. He still offers living water. And He still turns ordinary conversations into moments of eternal significance.

Bryan Wintersteen preaches on drinking deeply of the living water that you may be a river of living water for a thirsty world.

In today's episode, your host Hunter invites you to join him on December 20th, just ten days away from completing another year-long journey through the Scriptures. Together, we turn to the Gospel of John, reading chapters 7 and 8, and reflect on Jesus' bold declarations during the Festival of Shelters—the promise of "living water" that quenches our deepest thirsts. Hunter walks us through powerful moments, including Jesus' encounter with those questioning his identity, the mercy shown to the woman caught in adultery, and Jesus' profound invitation to come and drink from the fountain of salvation. Alongside readings and thoughtful insights, Hunter leads us in a time of prayer, lifting up our families, communities, and world. Stay tuned for encouragement, spiritual insight, and reminders of God's unconditional love. Make yourself comfortable, open your Bible, and prepare to drink deeply from God's Word together today. TODAY'S DEVOTION: The salvation the world is dying for has come. The "living waters" that Jesus spoke of, that salvation, isn't something confined to a religious ceremony or contained within a temple or an altar. It emerges from the heart of God Himself. The drought, the dryness, that our rebellion has brought on—it's over. The longing for life-giving water, for true hope and renewal, ends with the arrival of Jesus. He stands before us as the very source of life. It is not a ritual we must perform or a law we must perfectly uphold. It's a relationship, an invitation to come and drink deeply from what God is offering. We hear about the Festival of Shelters, with its beautiful and meaningful ceremony: the priest descending to the pool, retrieving water, and pouring it out as a sign of God's provision and promise. Scripture from Isaiah is recited, the anticipation and longing for Messiah fills the air. Then, at the highest point of the feast, Jesus steps forward and boldly declares: "Anyone who believes in me may come and drink, for the Scriptures declare that rivers of living water will flow from his heart." In doing so, He upstages the festival, showing that He is the fulfillment of all these promises—the very fountain of salvation, the One Isaiah spoke of, the One for whom all creation has been waiting. This is the good news: it is not about striving or earning or endless searching. He is here, the source of life, and He simply asks us to come—to bring our thirst, our emptiness, our need—and to receive. The triune God, the very Creator, beckons us to draw near and to be filled. These rivers of living water are for everyone who believes. Let us never stop drinking, never stop receiving what He freely gives. That's the prayer for my own soul, that I will see it and receive it and drink deep. It's the prayer I carry for my family, my wife, my daughters, and my son. And it's the prayer that I hold for you. May we all recognize the invitation, may we drink deeply of Him, and may we find our life, our joy, and our hope, in the One who is the fountain of salvation. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose  through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen.   Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you. Bring the nations into your fold, pour out your Spirit on all flesh, and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.   And now Lord,  make me an instrument of your peace.  Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon.  Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope.  Where there is darkness, light.  And where there is sadness,  Joy.  Oh Lord grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love.  For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life.  Amen And now as our Lord has taught us we are bold to pray... Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us forth as forgiven people, healed and renewed, that we may proclaim your love to the world, and continue in the risen life of Christ.  Amen.  OUR WEBSITE: www.dailyradiobible.com We are reading through the New Living Translation.   Leave us a voicemail HERE: https://www.speakpipe.com/dailyradiobible Subscribe to us at YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Dailyradiobible/featured OTHER PODCASTS: Listen with Apple Podcast DAILY BIBLE FOR KIDS DAILY PSALMS DAILY PROVERBS DAILY LECTIONARY DAILY CHRONOLOGICAL
