Let me ask you during these summer months, have you kept yourself hydrated? I am sure you have. Well do you know that we must also quench our thirsty souls? That’s what our Lead Pastor and myself will dive into today. Welcome Steve, glad you’re in the studio today.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

• How is Jesus Christ our living water? We hear this all the time, but maybe we don’t understand what it means.
• Physically, we get thirsty over and over. How is that different with Jesus as the living water?
• What is it that Jesus offers above and beyond all the other things that we do to try to fill our lives?
• Why are we considered vessels for God’s own choosing? What do we hold?

Just as Jesus extended grace to the Samaritan woman, we are called to reach out to those who are spiritually thirsty around us. Whether through a kind word, a listening ear, or a helping hand, we have the opportunity to show the world the love of Christ that quenches every thirst.
