Chapter 4

1) Why were the disciples surprised when they saw Jesus talking to a Samaritan woman? Was it because she was a Samaritan? Was it because she was a woman? Was it because she was divorced? Why did the Disciples not say anything directly to Jesus?

2) There are at least two character qualities that Jesus demonstrates by speaking to this woman.

a. What characteristics do you think Jesus demonstrates by speaking to this particular woman?

b. What does it tell you about Jesus' nature regarding her sin?

c. How do you react to people whose sins are obvious?

d. Does seeing how Jesus treats this woman change your mind about how to treat people whose sins are obvius? How?

4) What does it mean to worship in spirit and truth? How do you worship?
