Full of Zeal

August 18, 2024 • Pat Nagle • John 2:13–15

Jesus' overthrowing of the marketplace in the temple shows us the zeal of Jesus. But what was he so zealous about? See how Jesus' turning over of the tables points to a kingdom reality in which all people of all nations are invited into the experience of God's love.

The Gospel Crescendo

September 29, 2024 • Pat Nagle • John 4:1–10, John 4:13–26

The story of Jesus and the Samaritan woman serves as a crescendo to the narrative that John is writing about in his gospel. The Samaritan people coming to know the gospel and Jesus' renewal reaching beyond the Jews is the beginning of a kingdom movement predicted by all of Scripture.

The Stigma at the Well

September 22, 2024 • Pat Nagle • John 4:1–18

There is always a danger in reading assumptions into biblical stories. The question is, "Have we added to John’s gospel by making assumptions about the Samaritan woman?" To make it more personal, "How often do we do this to others in our lives?"

September 15, 2024 • Pat Nagle • John 3:22–36
