John 4:1 - 4:26

Gospel of JohnSteve Gregg
Steve Gregg delivers an analysis of John chapter 4, exploring the dialogue between Jesus and a Samaritan woman. Gregg provides historical and cultural context to enhance understanding while also delving into different interpretations of the conversation. He emphasizes that the theme of the conversation appears to be the internal worship of God rather than relying on external structures, and notes that while there are differing opinions among Christians about the woman's marital history, the important message is that God's love and forgiveness are available to all.
