In the first service of the new year, Seb Rab explores the next message in our Life in His Name series. He looks at John 4:1–42, where Jesus meets a Samaritan woman.

Through this chapter, we see that there are no limits to Christ’s love or reach. Jesus crosses barriers of race, history and social rules, showing compassion to someone others overlooked.

He offers her a fresh start and teaches that true worship comes from the heart, led by God’s Spirit.

As lives are changed and many come to believe, this story encourages us to look again at how wide Jesus’ reach really is, and who He might be drawing close today.
