The Carry On Cast Ep. 421

Pastor Megan and Pastor Kevin discuss John 4:16-29. Continued from last week: she is likely trapped in Levirate marriage, promised to the family member of a deceased husband who won’t marry her. She might be seen as bad luck, having caused many deaths. Jesus doesn’t judge this, he sees it and her. She engages with him in earnest questioning and truth-seeking. In this case, about the appropriate place for worship. But Jesus continues to break down boundaries by focusing on “spirit and truth”.  We encounter Jesus in the life and testimony of the people we meet. We travel to visit our partners not to change them, but to learn from them and be changed by them. We see the people and the faith we share.
