Crossing Racial Lines

Hook: What thoughts, if any, do you experience when talking to a stranger who is racially or culturally different from you?

Book: Jesus crossed cultural, religious, and racial divides to talk with this woman and reveal Himself. He wanted all people, regardless of background, to enjoy Living Water to satisfy their thirst for God. By believing in Jesus as the Messiah, the woman would receive forgiveness from her life of sin and, in addition, gain freedom from false traditions. The message of Jesus was so liberating that He had unusual acceptance with people from different backgrounds.

Took: In the mosaic of society you interact daily with people from different backgrounds. How could they see acceptance in you so that the message of Christ can be heard?
