John 4:1-7 | “Sinner-Seeking Savior”

Sermon Summary:In John 4:1–15, we meet a deeply broken Samaritan woman—but before she ever sought Jesus, Jesus was already seeking her. This sermon explores how Christ is a sinner-seeking Savior who came into the world to draw near to sinners, become weak for them, and initiate a relationship with them. Jesus “had” to pass through Samaria because it was the will of His Father to seek and save the lost. Through His weariness at the well and His conversation with this outcast woman, we see the grace of a Savior who crosses every barrier to bring living water to spiritually thirsty people.Sermon Outline:Jesus seeks sinners by drawing near to themJesus seeks sinners by becoming weak for themJesus seeks sinners by initiating a relationship with themKey Takeaway:Jesus is not waiting for sinners to clean themselves up before coming to Him.
