Take-Away Challenge Ask someone who is out of your comfort zone for their story. A Samaritan woman came to draw water, and Jesus said to her, “Give me a drink” as his disciples had gone to the city to buy food. The Samaritan woman said to him, “How is it that you, a Jew, ask a drink of me, a woman of Samaria?” Jews do not share things in common with Samaritans. Jesus answered her, “If you knew the gift of God, and who it is that is saying to you, ‘Give me a drink’, you would have asked me, and I would have given you living water.” The woman said, “But you have no bucket, and the well is deep. Where do you get that living water? Are you greater than our ancestor Jacob, who gave us the well, and where his children and his flocks drank from it?” Jesus said to her, “Everyone who drinks of this water will be thirsty again, but those who drink of the water that I will give them will never be thirsty. The water that I give will become in them a spring of water gushing up to eternal life,” The woman said to him, “Give me this water, so that I may never be thirsty or have to keep coming here to draw water.” Jesus said to her, “Go, call your husband, and come back.” The woman answered him, “I have no husband.” Jesus said to her, “You are right in saying, ‘I have no husband’; for you have had five husbands, and the one you have now is not your husband. What you have said is true!” The woman said to him, “Sir, I see that you are a prophet. Our ancestors worshiped on this mountain, but you say that the place where people must worship is in Jerusalem.” Jesus said to her, “Woman, believe me, the hour is coming when you will worship the Lord neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem. You worship what you do not know; we worship what we know, for salvation is from the Jews. But the hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshippers will worship the Lord in spirit and truth, for God seeks worshippers such as these. God is spirit, and those who worship must worship in spirit and truth.” The woman said to Jesus, “I know that Messiah is coming” (who is called Christ). “The Messiah will come and proclaim all things to us.” Jesus said to her, “It is I, the one who is speaking to you.” Just then the disciples came. They were astonished that Jesus was speaking with a woman, but no one said, “What do you want?” or, “Why are you speaking with her?” Then the woman left her water jar and went back to the city. She said to the people, “Come and see a man who told me everything I have ever done! He cannot be the Messiah, can he?” They left the city and were on their way to him.

A Samaritan woman came to draw water, and Jesus said to her, “Give me a drink” as his disciples had gone to the city to buy food.
