Sermon: Jesus the Bridge

Scripture: John 4:1-8

”Now Jesus learned that the Pharisees had heard that he was gaining and baptizing more disciples than John— although in fact it was not Jesus who baptized, but his disciples. So he left Judea and went back once more to Galilee. Now he had to go through Samaria. So he came to a town in Samaria called Sychar, near the plot of ground Jacob had given to his son Joseph. Jacob’s well was there, and Jesus, tired as he was from the journey, sat down by the well. It was about noon. When a Samaritan woman came to draw water, Jesus said to her, “Will you give me a drink?” (His disciples had gone into the town to buy food.)“

INTRODUCTION: Bridge builders are willing to follow the Holy Spirit into the mission field. 

Our mission is the connect ALL people to the person, power, and purpose of Jesus. 

Two things needed to build a bridge:

A. Time… Jesus sat down by the well. 

Jacob’s well was there, and Jesus, tired as he was from the journey, sat down by the well. It was about noon. John 4:6

B. Talk…Jesus said to her, “Will you give me a drink?”

When a Samaritan woman came to draw water, Jesus said to her, “Will you give me a drink?”

CONCLUSION: Are we willing to BE THE BRIDGE and take time and talk to someone about Jesus or invite them to church?
