You Are Not Alone: How the Holy Spirit Guides Us – John 16In Episode 154 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane continue their journey through the Gospel of John with John 16, where Jesus prepares His disciples for what life will look like after He leaves—and gives them an incredible promise: the Holy Spirit is coming.Jesus tells His disciples that the Spirit of Truth will guide them, teach them, reveal truth, and point them back to Him. What feels like Jesus leaving is actually the beginning of something new: God's presence dwelling within His people.Together, Jamie and Jane unpack what it practically means to be led by the Holy Spirit. How do we recognize His guidance? How do we distinguish His voice from our own thoughts, fears, and desires? And how can we trust His leading when we don't know what's coming next?John 16 also reminds us that following Jesus doesn't mean avoiding difficulty. Jesus tells His disciples plainly that trouble will come—but then gives them a promise we still desperately need today: “Take heart! I have overcome the world.”If you're facing a decision, walking through uncertainty, or simply longing to recognize God's voice more clearly, pull up a chair. You don't have to figure everything out on your own. The Holy Spirit is still guiding.Reflection Question: Where am I trying to figure everything out on my own instead of slowing down and allowing the Holy Spirit to guide me?____________________________________Connect with Jamie:Website: www.jamieklusacek.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacekConnect with Jane:Website: www.janewwilliams.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

In the beginning lyrics of the worship song, "O Come to the Altar", we sing, "Are you hurting and broken within? Overwhelmed by the weight of your sin? Jesus is calling. Have you come to end of yourself? Do you thirst for a drink from the well? Jesus is calling." Very fitting lyrics for the story of the woman at the well in John 4. Let's study this amazing story together now!

“The Woman At The Well”John 4:1-421 Now Jesus learned that the Pharisees had heard that he was gaining and baptizing more disciples than John— 2 although in fact it was not Jesus who baptized, but his disciples. 3 So he left Judea and went back once more to Galilee.4 Now he had to go through Samaria. 5 So he came to a town in Samaria called Sychar, near the plot of ground Jacob had given to his son Joseph. 6 Jacob's well was there, and Jesus, tired as he was from the journey, sat down by the well. It was about noon.7 When a Samaritan woman came to draw water, Jesus said to her, “Will you give me a drink?” 8 (His disciples had gone into the town to buy food.)9 The Samaritan woman said to him, “You are a Jew and I am a Samaritan woman. How can you ask me for a drink?” (For Jews do not associate with Samaritans.)10 Jesus answered her, “If you knew the gift of God and who it is that asks you for a drink, you would have asked him and he would have given you living water.”11 “Sir,” the woman said, “you have nothing to draw with and the well is deep. Where can you get this living water? 12 Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well and drank from it himself, as did also his sons and his livestock?”13 Jesus answered, “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, 14 but whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life.”15 The woman said to him, “Sir, give me this water so that I won't get thirsty and have to keep coming here to draw water.”16 He told her, “Go, call your husband and come back.”17 “I have no husband,” she replied.Jesus said to her, “You are right when you say you have no husband. 18 The fact is, you have had five husbands, and the man you now have is not your husband. What you have just said is quite true.”19 “Sir,” the woman said, “I can see that you are a prophet. 20 Our ancestors worshiped on this mountain, but you Jews claim that the place where we must worship is in Jerusalem.”21 “Woman,” Jesus replied, “believe me, a time is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem. 22 You Samaritans worship what you do not know; we worship what we do know, for salvation is from the Jews. 23 Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in the Spirit and in truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks. 24 God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in truth.”25 The woman said, “I know that Messiah” (called Christ) “is coming. When he comes, he will explain everything to us.”26 Then Jesus declared, “I, the one speaking to you—I am he.”27 Just then his disciples returned and were surprised to find him talking with a woman. But no one asked, “What do you want?” or “Why are you talking with her?”28 Then, leaving her water jar, the woman went back to the town and said to the people, 29 “Come, see a man who told me everything I ever did. Could this be the Messiah?” 30 They came out of the town and made their way toward him.31 Meanwhile his disciples urged him, “Rabbi, eat something.”32 But he said to them, “I have food to eat that you know nothing about.”33 Then his disciples said to each other, “Could someone have brought him food?”34 “My food,” said Jesus, “is to do the will of him who sent me and to finish his work. 35 Don't you have a saying, ‘It's still four months until harvest'? I tell you, open your eyes and look at the fields! They are ripe for harvest. 36 Even now the one who reaps draws a wage and harvests a crop for eternal life, so that the sower and the reaper may be glad together. 37 Thus the saying ‘One sows and another reaps' is true. 38 I sent you to reap what you have not worked for. Others have done the hard work, and you have reaped the benefits of their labor.”39 Many of the Samaritans from that town believed in him because of the woman's testimony, “He told me everything I ever did.” 40 So when the Samaritans came to him, they urged him to stay with them, and he stayed two days. 41 And because of his words many more became believers.42 They said to the woman, “We no longer believe just because of what you said; now we have heard for ourselves, and we know that this man really is the Savior of the world.”CONNECT WITH USIf you have any questions or would like to get to know us further, head over to https://www.triumphlbc.org/connect and fill out our online connection card.ABOUT TRIUMPHTriumph wants to see the life and message of Jesus transform your heart, home, and city.

Joy in the Resistance: Loving Jesus When the World Pushes Back – John 15:13–27In Episode 153 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane continue through John 15:13–27, where Jesus moves from one of His greatest statements about love—“Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one's life for one's friends”—into a difficult truth about what it means to follow Him: not everyone will understand or accept you.Jesus calls His disciples friends, commands them to love one another, and reminds them that they have been chosen to bear lasting fruit. But He also prepares them for resistance, rejection, and persecution.So how do we hold onto joy, love, and faith when following Jesus becomes difficult?Together, Jamie and Jane explore what it means to love sacrificially without needing the approval of the world, how to remain rooted in Christ when your faith is challenged, and the role of the Holy Spirit—the Advocate—who empowers us to testify about Jesus.Following Christ doesn't guarantee an easy road. But Jesus never asks us to walk it alone.This conversation is an invitation to stay rooted in love, remain faithful under pressure, and choose joy even when following Jesus comes with a cost.Reflection Question: Can I remain joyful, loving, and faithful to Jesus even when following Him costs me the approval of others?____________________________________Connect with Jamie:Website: www.jamieklusacek.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacekConnect with Jane:Website: www.janewwilliams.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

In this teaching from our "Come and See" series through the Gospel of John, we explore one of the most beautiful and scandalous stories in all of Scripture: Jesus and the Woman at the Well in John 4. Discover why Jesus intentionally walked through Samaria, a place Jews avoided at all costs, to have the longest recorded conversation of his ministry with a woman society had cast aside. We unpack the meaning of "living water," why this woman came to the well alone in the middle of the day, the surprising truth about her "five husbands," and how Jesus moves from confronting her deepest shame to revealing himself as the Messiah. This message explores themes of racism, rejection, identity, and the ache for something in life to finally satisfy, and shows how Jesus meets us exactly where we are, knows everything about us, and loves us anyway. Whether you're carrying shame, searching for acceptance, or just want a deeper study of the Gospel of John, this teaching will help you see Jesus like you've never seen him before.

We all carry things from our past that can shape the way we see ourselves and our future. The woman Jesus meets at the well knew what that felt like. But Jesus saw more to her story than what had already happened. What happens when Jesus steps into the parts of our story we'd rather avoid?

Stay Connected: The Vine, the Branches & the Purpose of Pruning – John 15:1–12In Episode 151 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane dive into one of Jesus' most powerful pictures of our relationship with Him: “I am the vine; you are the branches.”In John 15:1–12, Jesus teaches that a fruitful life doesn't come from striving harder—it comes from abiding deeper. But He also introduces something most of us would rather avoid: pruning.Together, Jamie and Jane explore why God prunes even the branches that are already producing fruit, how seasons of cutting back can actually prepare us for greater growth, and what it practically looks like to remain connected to Jesus when life feels uncomfortable or uncertain.What if the thing God is removing isn't punishment? What if it's preparation?Jesus' invitation is simple: Remain in Me. Because apart from Him we can do nothing, but connected to the Vine, our lives can produce the kind of lasting fruit God created us to bear.And at the center of it all is love—remaining in His love and learning to love others as He has loved us.Reflection Question: What if the thing I've been asking God to restore is actually something He's pruning so I can grow?____________________________________Connect with Jamie:Website: www.jamieklusacek.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacekConnect with Jane:Website: www.janewwilliams.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

Peace the World Can't Give: The Promise of the Holy Spirit – John 14:15–31 In Episode 150 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane finish John 14 with one of Jesus' greatest promises: we will never have to walk alone. As Jesus prepares His disciples for His departure, He promises the coming of the Holy Spirit—the Advocate, Helper, and Teacher who will remain with them and remind them of everything Jesus has taught. Then, in the middle of uncertainty about what comes next, Jesus gives them something the world cannot manufacture: His peace. Together, Jamie and Jane explore what it means to recognize the presence of the Holy Spirit in our everyday lives, how love for Jesus shapes our obedience, and the difference between temporary peace based on circumstances and the lasting peace that comes from Christ. Jesus never promised His followers a life without trouble, questions, or uncertainty. He promised something better: His presence in the middle of it. If your heart has been anxious, overwhelmed, or searching for peace, pull up a chair. John 14 reminds us that we have a Helper, we have His presence, and we have a peace the world cannot give. Reflection Question: Am I looking to my circumstances to give me peace—or am I learning to receive the peace Jesus has already given me? ____________________________________ Connect with Jamie: Website: www.jamieklusacek.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacek Connect with Jane: Website: www.janewwilliams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

Ask, Believe, Dream Bigger: The Greater Things Jesus Promised – John 14:12–14 In Episode 149 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane slow down and dive into just three powerful verses—John 14:12–14—where Jesus makes an astonishing promise about faith, prayer, and the “greater works” His followers will do. What did Jesus mean when He said, “Whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these”? And what do we do with His invitation to “ask me for anything in my name”? Together, Jamie and Jane explore the difference between dreaming with God and simply asking Him to bless our plans. They talk about bold prayers, surrendered dreams, expectations, and what it means to believe that God can accomplish more through our lives than we could ever manufacture on our own. Maybe we've been praying too safely. Maybe we've allowed disappointment to shrink what we're willing to ask God for. John 14 invites us to believe again, ask boldly, dream with God—and remember that ultimately, it is all for the glory of the Father. Reflection Question: Have I allowed fear, disappointment, or past unanswered prayers to make my prayers smaller—and what might God be inviting me to ask Him for again? ____________________________________ Connect with Jamie: Website: www.jamieklusacek.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacek Connect with Jane: Website: www.janewwilliams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

Lisa and I conclude our conversation on the woman at the well. Plus, the folly of judging the repentance of others. How we often get Micah wrong, and why the reality of forgiveness and peace with the living God is the most precious reality of the Christian faith.

Send us Fan MailThere's a difference between welcoming someone into your home and being desperate for them to come home. When a guest knocks, you welcome them in. When your own daughter comes home, you don't just welcome her, you hold on and hope she doesn't leave. That's the line this episode draws between how most of us treat the Holy Spirit and how the early church treated Him.Walking through John 4, this episode looks at the woman at the well, and how Jesus never had to argue her into the truth. He simply revealed what He already knew about her life, and every wall she had built came down in a moment. No debate, no argument, just the truth of who He was. From there it moves into Acts and Jeremiah 2, asking a hard question: are we welcoming the Holy Spirit into our services, or are we desperate for Him to lead our actual lives?This one challenges the idea that reading your Bible, praying, and having good church services is the finish line. It's an honest look at broken cisterns that keep filling up and draining out, and a call to stop debating people into belief and start showing them God is real.Scripture referenced: John 4:1-26, Acts 8, Acts 10, Acts 15, Jeremiah 2:1-13, Exodus 33:15-16, 1 Corinthians 14:24-25"You can't be a Christian and not try to look like Christ.

Lisa and I begin a discussion of Jesus' interaction with the woman at the well, celebrating His grace. I consider the latest donneybrook in the Reformed world built on anonymous accusations. Plus, how socialism destroys men's souls by corrupting the blessing of work.

Troubled World, Untroubled Heart: Trusting Jesus When Life Feels Uncertain – John 14:1–11 In Episode 147 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane step into John 14:1–11, where Jesus speaks some of His most comforting words to His disciples: “Do not let your hearts be troubled.” Jesus knows what is coming. The disciples are facing uncertainty, confusion, and fear—yet He doesn't promise them an easy road. Instead, He gives them something greater: Himself. Together, Jamie and Jane unpack what it means to have an untroubled heart in a troubled world, why trusting God doesn't require understanding everything He's doing, and the hope found in Jesus' declaration: “I am the way, the truth, and the life.” When the world feels uncertain, our circumstances don't have to determine the condition of our hearts. Jesus invites us to trust Him, know the Father through Him, and find peace in the promise that He is preparing the way. If your heart has felt anxious, overwhelmed, or uncertain about what's ahead, John 14 is an invitation to remember who Jesus is—and why you can trust Him. What is troubling my heart right now—and what would change if I trusted Jesus with it instead of trying to control the outcome? ____________________________________ Connect with Jamie: Website: www.jamieklusacek.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacek Connect with Jane: Website: www.janewwilliams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

Faithful Through Betrayal: Love, Loyalty, and the New Commandment – John 13:18–38 In Episode 146 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane continue through John 13:18–38, where the final hours before the cross reveal both the beauty of Christ's love and the heartbreak of human failure. Jesus foretells Judas' betrayal, predicts Peter's denial, and gives His disciples a new commandment that will forever define His followers: "Love one another as I have loved you." Together, they explore how Jesus responded to betrayal with compassion, why our identity is rooted in Christ rather than our failures, and what it truly means to love others with the same grace we've received. Even in the face of rejection and abandonment, Jesus remained faithful to His mission—and He invites us to do the same. This episode is a powerful reminder that while people may disappoint us, Jesus never will. His love is stronger than betrayal, His grace is greater than our failures, and His call to love remains at the center of the Christian life. How can I reflect the love of Jesus toward someone who has hurt me, disappointed me, or failed me? ____________________________________ Connect with Jamie: Website: www.jamieklusacek.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacek Connect with Jane: Website: www.janewwilliams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

The Woman at the Well Ps Jack Hanes

The Towel and the Basin: The Heart of a Servant – John 13:1–17 In Episode 145 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane begin one of the most intimate and transformative sections of the Gospel of John. In John 13:1–17, Jesus—the King of kings—kneels to wash the feet of His disciples, revealing that true greatness in God's Kingdom is found in humble service. Together, they unpack the significance of this unforgettable moment, exploring what it means to love sacrificially, lead with humility, and serve others with the heart of Christ. Peter's struggle to accept Jesus' act of service also reminds us that following Jesus means learning both to receive His grace and to extend it to others. This episode is an invitation to exchange pride for humility, status for service, and self-centered living for the example Jesus modeled on the night before the cross. As followers of Christ, we're not just called to admire His example—we're called to live it. Who is Jesus inviting me to serve with humility this week, and am I willing to lay down my pride to love like He loved?____________________________________ Connect with Jamie: Website: www.jamieklusacek.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacek Connect with Jane: Website: www.janewwilliams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

John 4 is one of the most beloved stories in the Gospels—but what if it is about far more than a private conversation between Jesus and a Samaritan woman? In this lesson, we explore John chapter 4 through the symbolic world of the Bible, uncovering how John's Gospel presents Jesus as the divine Bridegroom who has come to reclaim His bride. Throughout the Old Testament, wells are repeatedly the setting for covenant and betrothal. Abraham's servant meets Rebekah at a well. Jacob meets Rachel at a well. Moses meets Zipporah at a well. By intentionally placing Jesus at Jacob's Well, John invites us to recognize a familiar biblical pattern: a bridegroom has arrived. But who is the bride? By the first century, the region once known as the northern kingdom of Israel was called Samaria. Jesus' conversation with the Samaritan woman becomes a symbolic encounter with the people of Samaria themselves—a people long separated from Judah, yet still sought by God. We also examine Jesus' enigmatic statement that the woman has had "five husbands." Rather than focusing on her personal morality, we connect these words to 2 Kings 17, where five foreign nations were settled in Samaria following the Assyrian conquest. Their gods and religious practices profoundly shaped the identity of the region, providing a remarkable historical backdrop to Jesus' words. Finally, we explore Jesus' statement that the woman is "living with a man who is not your husband." We consider how this points beyond an individual relationship to the political and religious realities of first-century Samaria, including Roman rule and the temple to Caesar Augustus built by Herod the Great in the city of Samaria (Sebaste). Against this backdrop, Jesus calls His people away from earthly allegiances and back into a covenant relationship with God. Join us as we uncover the historical, cultural, and symbolic richness of John 4 and discover how this familiar story proclaims God's enduring desire to restore His covenant people. --------------------------------------------------------------------- www.figtreeministries.org **New Site!! www.figtreeteaching.com (Old Site) Lesson Handout: https://www.figtreeteaching.com/blog/the-hidden-meaning-of-john-4-a-bride-at-a-well Article: John 4 & the Samaritan Woman at the Well https://www.figtreeministries.org/post/john-4-the-samaritan-woman-at-the-well

This Sunday, Tyler Wilhelm, our Youth Director, walked through John 4 as we looked at Jesus' encounter with the Samaritan woman at the well. In this passage, we see a Savior who pursues people in their brokenness and offers the living water that truly satisfies. While the world constantly promises fulfillment, Jesus alone can satisfy the deepest thirst of our souls. Join us as we're challenged to consider, "Has it worked?".     Want to watch a version of this message? Check out our live broadcast archive at www.declarationchurch.net/live.

John 4:1-42 - The Woman at the Well

Death Leads to Life: The Way of Jesus – John 12:27–50 In Episode 143 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane explore the closing section of John 12, where Jesus begins preparing His followers for the reality of the cross. Through His powerful teaching about the grain of wheat that must die to produce life, Jesus reveals a kingdom principle that changes everything: death leads to life. Together, they unpack what it means to surrender our own plans, ambitions, and desires so that God can produce something greater through us. As Jesus calls people out of darkness and into His light, this passage challenges us to consider where we are resisting surrender and where God may be inviting us into deeper trust. This conversation is a reminder that what feels like loss in God's hands often becomes the very place where new life begins. What is God asking me to surrender today so that He can bring greater life through it tomorrow? ____________________________________ Connect with Jamie: Website: www.jamieklusacek.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacek Connect with Jane: Website: www.janewwilliams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

Raised: When Jesus Calls the Dead to Life – John 11:27–57 In Episode 141 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane explore one of the most powerful miracles in all of Scripture—the raising of Lazarus in John 11:27–57. As grief, doubt, hope, and faith collide, Jesus declares Himself to be “the resurrection and the life” before calling Lazarus from the tomb. Together, they unpack what this miracle reveals about the heart of God, the power of belief, and how Jesus often works in ways that stretch our faith beyond what we can see. This chapter is not only about a man being raised from the dead—it's about a Savior who brings life into every place that feels hopeless, buried, or beyond redemption. If you've ever wondered whether God can still move in what feels impossible, this conversation is a reminder that Jesus specializes in resurrection. What area of my life feels beyond hope—and am I willing to believe that Jesus still brings dead things back to life?____________________________________ Connect with Jamie: Website: www.jamieklusacek.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacek Connect with Jane: Website: www.janewwilliams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

The Delay, The Death, and The Resurrection Life - John 11:1-26 In Episode 141 - When Jesus hears that His close friend Lazarus is sick, He doesn't rush to his side—He waits. In this episode, we unpack the tension of John 11:1-26. Why does God sometimes seem slow to answer our pain? We'll look at the heartbreak of Mary and Martha, the raw humanity of Jesus, and the staggering moment He redefines reality by declaring, "I am the resurrection and the life." If you're sitting in a season of waiting or wondering if God has forgotten you, this episode is a powerful reminder that His delays are never denials. Where in your life right now does it feel like Jesus is arriving 'too late'—and how does knowing He delayed on purpose with Lazarus change how you view that waiting room? ____________________________________ Connect with Jamie: Website: www.jamieklusacek.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacek Connect with Jane: Website: www.janewwilliams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

In this TGC Classic message recorded at our 2019 National Conference, H. B. Charles preaches on Jesus's conversation with the Samaritan woman, the longest recorded dialogue with Jesus.
