We live in a pluralistic society, so we must ask this question: how can people be true to themselves and still get along? No matter who you are, if you care about the social fabric, that's a huge question to answer. My goal is to show Christians how they can be part of the solution. We're going to look at the subject of public faith. In John 4, we see that immediately after speaking to the Samaritan woman at the well, Jesus talks to his disciples and gets really metaphorical. He talks about spiritual sowing and reaping. What's he trying to get across? If we delve into it, we see that Jesus gives us 1) a call to spiritual sowing of seed, 2) the method of doing it, and then 3) the power, or the inner motivation, for doing it. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on September 29, 2013. Series: A Public Faith. Scripture: John 4:27-42.

Sometimes we focus on what we have, what we can do and how much effort we put in to get through life. In this Heartbeat Rosemary looks at the story of the Samaritan. She reminds us that it’s not the size of the bucket that we have but it is the gift of the Holy Spirit living inside of us that sustains us and keeps us going.

And she was willing to admit it. She wasn't too proud to admit that she was thirsty. “Yes, Teacher, give me this water.” She said she knew that she was dying of thirst—that unless something changed, she would die. After five husbands, she was dying inside. But Jesus offers her this living water. Water that truly satisfies. Jesus mercifully offers those who are dying of thirst living water. Relief from the endless cycle of sin and shame. Sin and shame. Sin and shame. Relief from our past. Forgiveness. She says, “he told me everything I've ever done.” And although these words were not written, you could complete the statement with these: And he loved me just the same. It was this radical acceptance and forgiveness from a kind and merciful Messiah that delivered her from her desperate thirst. He knows everything, and he loves us just the same. Are you thirsty? He knows. And you have a kind and merciful Savior who is making a point of pursuing your heart to give you the water that will quench your desperate thirst. So drink well of that water. Remember that your Messiah is kind and he pursues your heart, knowing everything you've ever done and loving you just the same. Live in the light and joy of him and drink well. That's the prayer that I have for my own soul. That's a prayer that I have for my family, for my wife, my daughters, my son. And that's a prayer that I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Jesus is my shepherd. You have called me by my name into the life of the beloved. Here in the stillness, I remember that I am not alone. I belong to you and to the great communion of saints and sinners held together in your love. Remind me, Lord, that every breath is grace, every encounter is a chance to give what I have received—mercy without measure. When I forget who I am, when I lose my way, lead me again to still waters. Restore my soul, renew my hope. Reroute me in the joy of simply being yours. Amen. The Lord's Prayer: 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 trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever and ever. Amen. OUR WEBSITE: www.dailyradiobible.com We are reading through the New Living Translation.

But a Samaritan, as he journeyed, came to where he was, and when he saw him, he had compassion (Luke 10:33). Jesus is Love!
In this episode of Arise + Aide, Curtis and Sally dive into Isaiah 12, a brief but powerful chapter of celebration and restoration. Flowing directly from the promises of Isaiah 11, this chapter presents a song of praise for salvation—a turning point from judgment to joy. Curtis reflects on the imagery of God's anger turning to comfort and the hope of restoration even for a people heading into exile. Sally draws rich connections between Isaiah's words and Jesus' conversation with the Samaritan woman at the well, showing how the “fountain of salvation” echoes across Scripture and invites us to trust in God's provision. Together, they explore how this prophetic song calls us to witness and share our faith even in seasons of trial, becoming living testimonies of God's grace. Themes of unity, divine presence, and worship in community resound throughout the discussion, revealing the beauty of God as our strength, our song, and our victory. With echoes from Exodus, the Psalms, and Revelation, Isaiah 12 becomes a chorus of hope that reminds us: joy comes after the storm, and God's presence is our greatest treasure.

Pastor John Ryan Cantu brings this week's message, “A Conversation." John 4:4-26 NLT: “He had to go through Samaria on the way. Eventually he came to the Samaritan village of Sychar, near the field that Jacob gave to his son Joseph. Jacob's well was there; and Jesus, tired from the long walk, sat wearily beside the well about noontime. Soon a Samaritan woman came to draw water, and Jesus said to her, “Please give me a drink.” He was alone at the time because his disciples had gone into the village to buy some food. The woman was surprised, for Jews refuse to have anything to do with Samaritans. She said to Jesus, “You are a Jew, and I am a Samaritan woman. Why are you asking me for a drink?” Jesus replied, “If you only knew the gift God has for you and who you are speaking to, you would ask me, and I would give you living water.” “But sir, you don't have a rope or a bucket,” she said, “and this well is very deep. Where would you get this living water? And besides, do you think you're greater than our ancestor Jacob, who gave us this well? How can you offer better water than he and his sons and his animals enjoyed?” Jesus replied, “Anyone who drinks this water will soon become thirsty again. But those who drink the water I give will never be thirsty again. It becomes a fresh, bubbling spring within them, giving them eternal life.” “Please, sir,” the woman said, “give me this water! Then I'll never be thirsty again, and I won't have to come here to get water.” “Go and get your husband,” Jesus told her. “I don't have a husband,” the woman replied. Jesus said, “You're right! You don't have a husband— for you have had five husbands, and you aren't even married to the man you're living with now. You certainly spoke the truth!” “Sir,” the woman said, “you must be a prophet. So tell me, why is it that you Jews insist that Jerusalem is the only place of worship, while we Samaritans claim it is here at Mount Gerizim, where our ancestors worshiped?” Jesus replied, “Believe me, dear woman, the time is coming when it will no longer matter whether you worship the Father on this mountain or in Jerusalem. You Samaritans know very little about the one you worship, while we Jews know all about him, for salvation comes through the Jews. But the time is coming—indeed it's here now—when true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth. The Father is looking for those who will worship him that way. For God is Spirit, so those who worship him must worship in spirit and in truth.” The woman said, “I know the Messiah is coming—the one who is called Christ. When he comes, he will explain everything to us.” Then Jesus told her, “I Am the Messiah!”" If you enjoyed the podcast, please subscribe and share it with your friends on social media.

39 Many Samaritans from that town believed in him because of the woman's testimony, “He told me all that I ever did.” 40 So when the Samaritans came to him, they asked him to stay with them, and he stayed there two days. 41 And many more believed because of his word. 42 They said to the woman, “It is no longer because of what you said that we believe, for we have heard for ourselves, and we know that this is indeed the Savior of the world.” 43 After the two days he departed for Galilee. 44 (For Jesus himself had testified that a prophet has no honor in his own hometown.) 45 So when he came to Galilee, the Galileans welcomed him, having seen all that he had done in Jerusalem at the feast. For they too had gone to the feast.
Because God has made our name for us, we no longer need to glorify ourselves. Acts 8:8–25 (ESV): 8 So there was much joy in that city. 9 But there was a man named Simon, who had previously practiced magic in the city and amazed the people of Samaria, saying that he himself was somebody great. 10 They all paid attention to him, from the least to the greatest, saying, “This man is the power of God that is called Great.” 11 And they paid attention to him because for a long time he had amazed them with his magic. 12 But when they believed Philip as he preached good news about the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women. 13 Even Simon himself believed, and after being baptized he continued with Philip. And seeing signs and great miracles performed, he was amazed. 14 Now when the apostles at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent to them Peter and John, 15 who came down and prayed for them that they might receive the Holy Spirit, 16 for he had not yet fallen on any of them, but they had only been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. 17 Then they laid their hands on them and they received the Holy Spirit. 18 Now when Simon saw that the Spirit was given through the laying on of the apostles' hands, he offered them money, 19 saying, “Give me this power also, so that anyone on whom I lay my hands may receive the Holy Spirit.” 20 But Peter said to him, “May your silver perish with you, because you thought you could obtain the gift of God with money! 21 You have neither part nor lot in this matter, for your heart is not right before God. 22 Repent, therefore, of this wickedness of yours, and pray to the Lord that, if possible, the intent of your heart may be forgiven you. 23 For I see that you are in the gall of bitterness and in the bond of iniquity.” 24 And Simon answered, “Pray for me to the Lord, that nothing of what you have said may come upon me.” 25 Now when they had testified and spoken the word of the Lord, they returned to Jerusalem, preaching the gospel to many villages of the Samaritans.
Welcome to Wellspring Church!How do we take the values of the Kingdom and bring them into our everyday lives? In this message, Pastor Billy Waters walks us through the parable of the Good Samaritan in Luke 10, inviting us to see with the eyes of compassion and respond to need, even when it's inconvenient or costly.Rooted in the vision of seeing the Kingdom of God here as it is in heaven, this message calls us to live out the values of Jesus in our workplaces, neighborhoods, and relationships—just like the Samaritan who responded when others passed by.
If we want to see what love looks like, we have to look at how Jesus treats the people whom everyone else disapproves of being with. This time, we are going for the double whammy of a woman who wasn't even a Jew but one of the Samaritans, their hated enemy.

Personal Reflections and Spiritual Drought Feeling of spiritual drought and unmet expectations. Experiencing a period where things are not going as desired. Feeling "down and out" about recent events. Scriptural Reading: John 4:1-26 Jesus' Journey to Samaria Jesus left Judea after the Pharisees heard He was baptizing more disciples than John. Jesus went to Galilee, passing through Samaria. He arrived at Sychar, near Jacob's well, around the sixth hour and rested. Encounter with the Samaritan Woman A woman came to draw water, and Jesus asked her for a drink. The woman questioned Jesus because Jews typically do not associate with Samaritans. Jesus told her that if she knew who He was, she would ask Him for living water. Discussion about Living Water The woman questioned how Jesus could provide water since He had nothing to draw with and the well was deep. Jesus explained that whoever drinks the water He gives will never thirst again; it will become a spring of everlasting life. The woman asked for this water so she wouldn't have to keep coming to the well. Revelation of the Woman's Past Jesus told her to call her husband, and she admitted she had no husband. Jesus revealed that she had five husbands, and the man she was currently with was not her husband. The woman recognized Jesus as a prophet. Debate on Worship The woman mentioned that her ancestors worshiped on a mountain, while Jews worshiped in Jerusalem. Jesus said that the time was coming when people would worship the Father neither on the mountain nor in Jerusalem. True worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such worshipers. Identification as the Messiah The woman stated that she knew the Messiah was coming and would explain everything. Jesus declared, "I that speak unto thee am He." Impact on the Disciples and the City The disciples were surprised to see Jesus talking with a woman. The woman left her water pot and went into the city, telling the men to come and see a man who knew everything she had ever done, suggesting He might be the Christ. The people left the city to see Jesus. Going to the Source The woman at the well encountered more than she expected. She found Jesus resting at the well. Jesus asked her for a drink, despite the social norms. God's Awareness and Intervention Just as God saw Brother Briley as a "lost boy" in church, He saw the woman's need. Brother Briley felt destined for hell despite not having committed significant sins. God saved Brother Briley in a church in Campbell, North Carolina. The woman was not looking for Jesus, but He found her at the well. Jesus offered her living water, highlighting the gift of God. Understanding the Samaritans The Samaritans were idolaters who did not serve the living Father. The woman did not initially recognize Jesus as anything more than an ordinary man. If she had known who He was, she would have asked for living water. Personal Struggles and Divine Purpose Feeling like giving up and questioning God's purpose. The "fountain of living water" springing up from within. Saved and transformed, with a desire to thank God eternally. Actions and expressions are driven by God's presence within. The Gift of Living Water Experiencing a taste of living water at a young age. Coming to the source (Jesus) is all that is needed. A burden for lost people, whether nearby or elsewhere. The Sprinkling of Living Water The living water within should be shared with others. Like a sprinkler, the water should be planted around others. Others may notice and ask about the source of happiness. Inner Happiness Despite Circumstances Not always outwardly happy, but possessing an inner joy. Something inside that motivates to press on and continue traditions.
Full Text of ReadingsFeast of Saint James, Apostle Lectionary: 605The Saint of the day is Saint JamesSaint James’ Story This James is the brother of John the Evangelist. The two were called by Jesus as they worked with their father in a fishing boat on the Sea of Galilee. Jesus had already called another pair of brothers from a similar occupation: Peter and Andrew. “He walked along a little farther and saw James, the son of Zebedee, and his brother John. They too were in a boat mending their nets. Then he called them. So they left their father Zebedee in the boat along with the hired men and followed him” (Mark 1:19-20). James was one of the favored three who had the privilege of witnessing the Transfiguration, the raising to life of the daughter of Jairus, and the agony in Gethsemani. Two incidents in the Gospels describe the temperament of this man and his brother. Saint Matthew tells that their mother came—Mark says it was the brothers themselves—to ask that they have the seats of honor in the kingdom. “Jesus said in reply, ‘You do not know what you are asking. Can you drink the cup that I am going to drink?' They said to him, ‘We can'” (Matthew 20:22). Jesus then told them they would indeed drink the cup and share his baptism of pain and death, but that sitting at his right hand or left was not his to give—it “is for those for whom it has been prepared by my Father” (Matthew 20:23b). It remained to be seen how long it would take to realize the implications of their confident “We can!” The other disciples became indignant at the ambition of James and John. Then Jesus taught them all the lesson of humble service: The purpose of authority is to serve. They are not to impose their will on others, or lord it over them. This is the position of Jesus himself. He was the servant of all; the service imposed on him was the supreme sacrifice of his own life. On another occasion, James and John gave evidence that the nickname Jesus gave them—“sons of thunder”—was an apt one. The Samaritans would not welcome Jesus because he was on his way to hated Jerusalem. “When the disciples James and John saw this they asked, ‘Lord, do you want us to call down fire from heaven to consume them?' Jesus turned and rebuked them…” (Luke 9:54-55). James was apparently the first of the apostles to be martyred. “About that time King Herod laid hands upon some members of the church to harm them. He had James, the brother of John, killed by the sword, and when he saw that this was pleasing to the Jews he proceeded to arrest Peter also” (Acts 12:1-3a). This James, sometimes called James the Greater, is not to be confused with James the Lesser or with the author of the Letter of James and the leader of the Jerusalem community. Reflection The way the Gospels treat the apostles is a good reminder of what holiness is all about. There is very little about their virtues as static possessions, entitling them to heavenly reward. Rather, the great emphasis is on the Kingdom, on God's giving them the power to proclaim the Good News. As far as their personal lives are concerned, there is much about Jesus' purifying them of narrowness, pettiness, fickleness.

We all thirst for something—but are we drinking from the right well? In this heartfelt devotional, Alexis A. Goring shares how a simple moment at a lemonade stand revealed a deeper truth about our spiritual lives. Reflecting on John 4:10, she draws a powerful parallel between physical thirst and the soul’s longing for the Living Water that only Jesus can provide. Whether you’re feeling spiritually dry, chasing worldly “quick fixes,” or just in need of renewal, this Christian devotional on John 4 offers refreshing encouragement: Only Jesus can truly satisfy.
There is said to be devastation in a County Clare village, following the tragic death of a mother and her two children in a shooting incident in Fermanagh. 45-year-old Vanessa Whyte from Barefield and her children Sara and James Rutledge, who were aged 13 and 14, died in a gun attack at their home in Maguiresbridge on Wednesday. Vanessa was found dead alongside one of her children, while the second child later succumbed to their injuries at the Royal Victoria Hospital in Belfast. A man, who also suffered gunshot wounds, remains in a serious condition in hospital. Police have said a triple murder and attempted suicide is one line of inquiry - as a man from the same household remains seriously injured in hospital. Meanwhile, a vigil will take place later in the grounds of Maguiresbridge Primary School. To discuss this further, Alan Morrissey was joined by Fr Tom Fitzpatrick, Barefield Parish Priest and the families neighbour, Ann Norton If you have been affected by this story, you can contact Samaritans on 116 123 or Pieta House on 1800 247 247 or text help to 51444.
Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.” Jesus called his twelve disciples to him and gave them authority to drive out impure spirits and to heal every disease and sickness. These are the names of the twelve apostles: first, Simon (who is called Peter) and his brother Andrew; James son of Zebedee, and his brother John; Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas and Matthew the tax collector; James son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus; Simon the Zealot and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him. These twelve Jesus sent out with the following instructions: “Do not go among the Gentiles or enter any town of the Samaritans. Go rather to the lost sheep of Israel. (Matthew 9.37-10.6, NIV)

What does it mean to love your neighbor?

NAME, IMAGE, & LIKENESS John 4.3-42 Dr Gordon Dabbs Jesus doesn't stretch us because He enjoys watching us squirm. He challenges us because He wants to transform us into the people we were always meant to be. That's the deal. N.I.L. • Name: God announces… Numbers 6.27 (ESV) “So shall they put my name upon the people of Israel, and I will bless them.” • Image: We are… Predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son. Romans 8.29 (ESV) • Likeness: We are called Christians, literally, “little Christs.” Acts 11.26 Here's the thing. Until a person accepts that they are broken and there is NOTHING they can do to fix themselves, they won't hear this as good news. But once I understand I'm created by God to bear the image of His Son, the lifelong adventure begins. Romans 8.28-29 (ESV) And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose. For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstborn among many brothers. I pray that this message series has helped you see what the Lord is doing through the discomfort… how He is shaping and molding you. John 3.16 (ESV) For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. John 4.3-7 (ESV) He left Judea and departed again for Galilee. And he had to pass through Samaria. So he came to a town of Samaria called Sychar, near the field that Jacob had given to his son Joseph. Jacob's well was there; so Jesus, wearied as he was from his journey, was sitting beside the well. It was about the sixth hour. A woman from Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, “Give me a drink.” John 4.9 (ESV) “How is it that you, a Jew, ask for a drink from me, a woman of Samaria?” (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.) She sighs… “Oh well, I guess we'll have to wait on the Messiah to come some day and clear all of this up.” John 4.26 (ESV) “I who speak to you am he.” John4.39 (ESV) Many Samaritans from that town believed in him because of the woman's testimony. There are few things that stretch me… that pull me out of my comfort zone… like the love of Jesus. He loves the immigrant… and the ICE agent… the MAGA hat guy and the vegan barista with the composting toilet. He loves the influencers and the invisible. Highland Park… and Hamilton Park. Hebrews 1.3 (ESV) He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature. What do you think? Can you say yes to the N.I.L. deal and refuse to love like he loves?

We're honored to welcome Dr. Manny Arango to Citizen Church for a powerful and prophetic message titled “Out of Order”, based on John 4 and Chapter 5 of his book Crushing Chaos: Rolling in the Deep. This message takes us to a familiar scene — a well. But what unfolds there is anything but ordinary. In John 4, Jesus meets the Samaritan woman and offers her living water, not just to quench her physical thirst, but to awaken her soul. Key Scriptures: John 4:7–16 | Leviticus 14:5 | Genesis 24 | Genesis 29:1–14 | Exodus 2:15–21 | Hosea 2:16–17 | Philippians 4:10–13 In this message, you'll explore: – The meaning and power behind Living Water – How wells in Scripture often represent divine encounters and destiny – Why contentment is a secret weapon (Philippians 4:13) – What it means to move from “Master” to “Husband” (Hosea 2) — from law to love – And how divine order can turn our chaos into purpose “If you knew the gift of God…” (John 4:10) “You will no longer call me ‘Master,' but ‘Husband.'” (Hosea 2:16) Throughout the Bible, the well is where lives shift — where Isaac, Jacob, and Moses each met their bride. And in this message, Dr. Manny reminds us that Jesus still meets people at the well today — especially when things feel out of order. Whether you're thirsty for clarity, direction, healing, or purpose — Jesus offers living water. You don't have to stay dry. You don't have to stay stuck.

What does this have to do with anything? Well thats where we are going today. LUKE 17 11 As Jesus continued on toward Jerusalem, he reached the border between Galilee and Samaria. 12 As he entered a village there, ten men with leprosy stood at a distance, 13 crying out, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!” 14 He looked at them and said, “Go show yourselves to the priests.” And as they went, they were cleansed of their leprosy. 15 One of them, when he saw that he was healed, came back to Jesus, shouting, “Praise God!” 16 He fell to the ground at Jesus' feet, thanking him for what he had done. This man was a Samaritan. 17 Jesus asked, “Didn't I heal ten men? Where are the other nine? 18 Has no one returned to give glory to God except this foreigner?” 19 And Jesus said to the man, “Stand up and go. Your faith has healed you.” Healed GK sozo - salvation

Today we read about the critical moment when Assyria destroys the Northern Kingdom, and the ten northern tribes are exiled and assimilated among the nations. Fr. Mike explains how this moment and the foreign possession of Samaria is key in order to understand Jesus' encounter with the Samaritan woman in John 4. We also read about how the prophet Micah beautifully foreshadows the birth of Jesus. Today's readings are 2 Kings 17, Micah 5-7, and Psalm 140.
