Draw from the Well: Living a Legacy of Love and Intention

Our monthly newsletter — one more way for sharing resources and information that will help Christian women discover and embrace God’s design for their lives and their relationships.  In the newsletter you will find articles focused on the differing roles of womanhood (including but not limited to: wife, mother, daughter, friend, employee, daughter of the King), a section devoted specifically to the role of grandparent, resources, links, and behind the scenes snapshots.

Come “Draw from the Well” with us as we learn to live and leave a legacy of love and intention.

John 4:6b-15

…so Jesus, wearied as he was from his journey, was sitting beside the well. It was about the sixth hour.

A woman from Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, “Give me a drink.” (For his disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.)The Samaritan woman said to him, “How is it that you, a Jew, ask for a drink from me, a woman of Samaria?” (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.) 10 Jesus answered her, “If you knew the gift of God, and who it is that is saying to you, ‘Give me a drink,’ you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water.” 11 The woman said to him, “Sir, you have nothing to draw water with, and the well is deep. Where do you get that living water? 12 Are you greater than our father Jacob? He gave us the well and drank from it himself, as did his sons and his livestock.” 13 Jesus said to her, “Everyone who drinks of this water will be thirsty again, 14 but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him will never be thirsty again. The water that I will give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life.” 15 The woman said to him, “Sir, give me this water, so that I will not be thirsty or have to come here to draw water.”
