Jesus had every reason to walk past the woman at the well: she was the wrong ethnicity, the wrong gender, and had the wrong reputation. But he stopped anyway, because the gospel was never meant for respectable people. In this sermon, we explore what it means to be truly incarnate in our communities: present in the mess, prioritizing connection over correctness, and offering ourselves the way Jesus offered himself. If the religious folks in town think we're the bad crowd for who we're including, we might just be doing something right.
