John - Day 8: The Living Water

Water is one of the most important substances on earth. All humans (as well as plants and animals) must have water to survive. If there was no water there would be no life on earth. Jesus refers to Himself as offering living water. This water is satisfying, quenching and everlasting. Whoever drinks the water He offers will never thirst (John 4:10-13).

Read John 4:1-42

Q: Have you ever been in an environment where you lacked access to
water? What emotions do you think you would feel?

Q: Why did Jesus go through Samaria? Where does the church have to go to get involved with bringing hope and healing to those that are hurting?

Q: Describe Jesus’ interaction with the woman at the well? What may have likely been our justified interaction with someone of the same struggles? Why do you think her background is important in understanding to whom Jesus offers this water?

Q: What is the difference between seeing people and problems? How can I guard against not seeing problems but rather people?

Q: How did the gospel satisfy the woman’s thirst for her soul? Do you think she realized her great need for a savior?
