What happens when we misread the Samaritan woman in John 4? In this episode of "The Chick Report," Dr. Sandra Glahn talks with Dr. Lynn Cohick about the Woman at the Well, the “sixth hour,” and the way John uses light and darkness to spotlight who Jesus is—and how he sees her.

Discover:

• Why the “five husbands”, and "one who is not your own" details do not demand a story of immorality
• How church tradition honored her as Photina—and why later interpretation turned suspicious
• How the harvest teaching belongs inside John 4 and exposes what the disciples missed

Join us as we explore the theme “A Woman’s Place is in the Story”—because when we import assumptions into the text, we distort the story John tells.
