The Well Women: Crossing the Boundaries

The Well Women: Crossing the Boundaries

"The Well Women" was an IndieFab finalist in the ForeWord Book of the Year Awards for 2013. The Samaritan Woman Comes to Life----The Samaritan woman at the well has gotten a bad rap. For two thousand years sheâ€™s been known as the loose woman with long affairs and the â€œfive-time loserâ€ of short marriagesâ€”a slut and a victim. But what is her truth? Former members of an international Bible study group in Rome are reunited on a tour of the West Bank city of Nablus, the historical site of Jacobâ€™s well where Jesus encountered the Samaritan â€œwoman at the well.â€ Beneath their stylish veneer of accomplishment and comfortable affluence, each woman has been deeply hurt and nearly broken by their lives. At the well, with a modern Samaritan woman as their guide, each woman shares her journey of recovery through the healing power of â€œliving waterâ€ from Jesus Christ. Through the love and support of the study groupâ€™s members, they truly meet each other. Throughout this tour of life, healing, and history, the reader is treated to a rich tapestry of details about the people and culture of the Middle East. In this inspiring story of triumph, redemption, and healing, nine modern women discover what it is like to walk in the Samaritan womanâ€™s sandals, each on her own path to becoming a Well Woman. With accompanying discussion questions, The Well Women is an excellent choice for Bible study groups and retreats. It makes a unique gift for anyone, especially those who are going through a difficult marriage, the loss of a child or spouse, or any of lifeâ€™s other challenges. Dr. John Pilch, scripture scholar, says, â€œWhether selected for serious study or spiritual enrichment, this book provides fresh insights into a familiar story that will prove its enduring power to challenge and inspire readers, women and men alike.â€
