Fellowship Baptist Church
UNEXPECTED — Chapter 4: Unexpected Forgiveness
We all carry something—regret, shame, secrets, or just the weight of being tired of pretending. But what if Jesus is sitting at the well, waiting for you? We’re diving into John 4—when Jesus intentionally walked miles through the heat to meet a woman no one else wanted. She had a past. So do we. But He met her with unexpected forgiveness… and it changed everything. If you’ve ever felt worn out, unseen, or unworthy—come hear how Jesus sees you, knows your story, and still wants you. Join us for worship, Sunday at 9:15am (in-person) or 11:00am (in-person + online).
