Lesson 10 Ode to Samaria

The focus of this lesson was Jesus visit to samaria and his meeting and talk with the Samarian woman.

Scripture : John 4 5 - 43

Icebreaker: Tell our guess something about yourself he wouldnt know and give your name.

Read and discussed scripture

Discussion points;

Why did she make the point about him being a jew?
What does he mean, you’ll thirsteth again?
What water is Jesus talking of?
What did he do here? [discussion of her marital status]
Where should we worship? [present, and historically]


Exercise : Poem about the story

Class was asked to come up with;
10 Minutes
10 words for each of the five senses [touch, sight, etc]
20 words that mean motion
30 words from the story [women, well, etc]
5 minutes to compose poem from those words

One Poem

Jesus went to a well
to chat with the woman
about the living water, and
she thought it was very delightfull.
