In this episode of Your Week with St. Luke’s, Pastor Jad Denmark explores what it means to live as a resurrection people by focusing on John 4:13–15, the story of Jesus and the Samaritan woman at the well. Emphasizing the contrast between static traditions and the dynamic, life-giving “living water” Jesus offers, the message highlights Jesus’ radical breaking of social and religious barriers by engaging a Samaritan woman—a marginalized figure in her time. The woman’s gradual openness to Jesus, despite her initial misunderstanding, reflects a journey from exclusion toward transformation. Pastor Jad invites listeners to reflect on how Jesus calls us to be refreshed not only physically, but spiritually and socially, challenging old assumptions with a gospel that reaches everyone. Ultimately, the episode underscores how resurrection life means living with openness to new realities shaped by grace, compassion, and inclusion.
