One of the most important reasons we need to read the Bible is to learn about the life of Jesus. One of the main reasons He came to earth was to show us what the kind of life God means for us to live is like. Jesus always did the things that pleased God, and he did it under the same conditions that we must do it.
This month we will be learning about how to be like Jesus. It’s not really something that we can do on our own, but God will help us be like Jesus. The Bible says that God is “conforming us to the image of Jesus,” which means He is helping us day by day to be more like Jesus. One of the ways He does this is helping us realize what Jesus did as we read about Jesus’ life in the Bible.
This Sunday we will look at the way Jesus loved people. There are many stories which teach us about Jesus’ love, but we will focus on the time Jesus met the Samaritan woman at Jacob’s Well in Sychar, Sarmaria. Join us Sunday as we see why it might have been difficult for a Jew to even talk to a Samaritan woman, and this woman in particular had very few if any friends. But Jesus spoke to her and told her about “Living Water” that only He could give to her. Because He was friendly to the woman, almost the whole city of Sychar came out to listen to His teachings.
If we want to be like Jesus, we must love all kinds of people…not just the easy ones to love. And we must show our love by our actions, not just talk about it.
Join us Sunday as we learn more about this important topic. It would be a great time to show love to a friend by inviting him or her to Sunday School!
Tom and Sydney Cook
