“A Woman at the Well” (John 4:3-30)
Rev. Dr. Isaac Holt, Jr. | Royal Missionary Baptist Church

This week, Rev. Dr. Isaac Holt, Jr. preaches on John 4:3-30, which tells the story of a Samaritan woman who, in Pastor Holt’s words, “Was an immoral woman. We have no description of anyone else in the life of Jesus who had more moral failures than this woman. Yet Jesus came to her.” Pastor Holt goes on to point out the significance of their conversation, saying, “This encounter of Jesus with this woman at the well is the longest record of any conversation between Jesus and anybody in the gospel. He spent more personal time with this woman – who most of us would have looked over – He spent time looking at.” Listen as Pastor Holt breaks down how Jesus not only waited on this woman, but worked with her and met her at the place of her needs. We believe God with you that God is about to speak a word that is especially for you.
