The Gospel of John pt. 24 - Rick Cochran

What happens when Jesus intentionally crosses boundaries everyone else avoids? In this  powerful introduction to the story of the Samaritan woman in John 4, discover why Jesus “had  to” pass through Samaria—and how His journey reveals a Savior who sees individuals, confronts  compromised worship, breaks through generations of religious and cultural hostility, and carries  a mission far bigger than any one person. From the surprising contrast between Nicodemus  and the Samaritan woman to the history behind the deep divide between Jews and Samaritans,  this message lays the groundwork for an unforgettable encounter with Christ. Above all, it  reveals a life-changing truth: Jesus is for everyone, He sees you personally, and nothing He does  is by accident—He moves on purpose and with purpose.
