Who is the Woman at the Well?
About this episode
The episode explores the story of the Samaritan Woman at the Well and its relevance to modern Christian life.
The Samaritan Woman, also called The Woman at the Well, appears in John 4 in a long discourse with Jesus under the noonday sun. She famously has had many husbands and is currently "with" a man who is "not her husband," and yet ... she is also a pivotal evangelist, preacher, and leader for the early Jesus movement. We heard her story in Lent 3, Year A, so we're taking a moment dive deeper into this text and what it might to say to us who are reclaiming our Christian faith for modern Christian life. Join friend of Rev. Lizzie and the pod, The Rev. Angela Tyler-Williams!.
