When will you be happy? We’re all looking for happiness, but where do we find it? In this episode, we explore a how to find a happiness that satisfies.

In this conversation Pastor Philip and Pastor Eric discuss the identity trap of the Samaritan woman at the well. They address key questions from the sermon, including:

1. What was her identity trap? 0:39
2. Remarkably, the Samaritan woman seems glad that Jesus knows her past. Why does she respond with gladness to Jesus when her sins are exposed? 1:30
3. Are there other ways we look for satisfaction through people? 7:47
4. How do we know if we’ve fallen into this identity trap? 9:08
5. The disciples were probably caught off guard seeing Jesus talk to a woman alone, let alone a Samaritan woman! But v27 says they held back their questions, what do you think the trap they’re avoiding is? 12:48
6. What resources in the Gospel help us with our deep identity need for satisfaction? 16:00
7. What practical advice would you give someone who are struggling with finding satisfaction through people? 19:57
