Dr. Caryn Reeder, professor and author, joins Phil to discuss her new book The Samaritan Woman’s Story. This much understood story in John 4 has had a massive impact on the Church and the formation of men and women in the Body of Christ, but not always in helpful ways.Caryn digs into the historical and cultural world of John 4 to share a more helpful, and Biblically accurate way, of understanding this story and the beautiful, life-giving implications for the Church and faith formation today, especially in light of #metoo & #churchtoo.
Friends, this has shot up to the top of my list of favorite books that combine solid Biblical research with vital messages for the Body of Christ today. I cannot recommend it highly enough. You can check out The Samaritan Woman’s Story on Amazon here.
