This week, we reflect on the thirst that runs through the Sunday readings, from Israel in the desert, to Paul’s reminder that God’s love has been poured into our hearts, to Jesus meeting the Samaritan woman at the well. This episode is about trust, grace, and the danger of testing God when He is already giving us the only water that truly satisfies. If you’ve ever wrestled with doubt, impatience, or spiritual dryness, this one’s for you.
