Jesus crossed every barrier to reach the Samaritan woman. Learn how to follow His example by crossing barriers for Christ today. Crossing Barriers for Christ means following Jesus’ example of compassion that reaches across the divides of culture, politics, and pride. The Samaritan woman at the well reminds us that no one is beyond the reach of God’s grace. When Jesus spoke with her, He crossed every social line—gender, race, religion, and morality—to bring living water to her soul.
