Women of Welcome: Christ-Like WelcomeUkázka
Welcome that Extends Grace
Thoughtful Questions:
1. Traditionally, Jews would journey around Samaria in order to travel north and south in the region. But Jesus led his disciples through Samaria in order to show welcome to a woman they would have intentionally avoided otherwise. Who might you be feeling led to welcome that you usually avoid?
2. The woman from Samaria was going about her daily routines when she encountered Jesus at Jacob’s well. Grace often comes to us at unexpected times. Can you recall any unexpected moments when grace came to you?
3. What effect does this one encounter with Jesus have on the Samaritan woman? On the people in her town? On his disciples?
