In my Johannine Literature class today we discussed John 4 and Jesus’ encounter with the woman at the well. There is much to learn in this passage, not least how in John 4 and John 3 we see Jesus dealing with individuals. A few years ago I wrote a brief article discussing lessons we can learn from Jesus’ example in these chapters- “Learning Evangelism from the Great Soul-Hunter.”

I find myself coming back to these texts regularly as I think about evangelism. Perhaps this brief reflection will be of use to others.
