Jesus and Our Insatiable Thirst
The purpose of this brief series of homilies on the Woman at the Well is to help us move beyond thinking about Jesus’ encounter with a Samaritan woman who had a difficult time with relationships, to consider our own deep thirst for something more. This is striking because we’re supposed to know the Jesus is the living water, and yet we continue to search for something more…
Scripture: John 4:19-26
When Jesus gets too close to the thirsty woman’s soul, she quickly changes the subject by bringing up what is the equivalent of the ancient worship wars. Jesus stays with this distraction and uses it as an opportunity to provide profound theology about worshiping in spirit and truth. And then returns to presenting himself as Messiah. Worshiping in spirit and truth can only be understood in the context of living water for our insatiable thirst.
