9 locals and YHC showed up for a complex workout, in instruction only, that proved to be just the thing to get us going on a near perfect Tuesday morning. The Irving Park teachers have been getting there earlier and earlier, but we figured 5:40 to be a tad early even for the most dedicated teacher. Hushpuppy EHs almost as well as he runs, bringing in another #Natville newcomer Rahim Stennett now forever known as #RedStripe, we just need to work on HP’s GPS comms. Now, 11 men in total, we went through introduction, disclosure, and properly welcomed #RedStripe with 30 SSH IC. The rest went down like this:

Highlights from 3rdF at Search Office on Pembroke led by Bird’s Nest
We started off by reviewing verses 1-26 in Chapter 4, but really focusing on the punchline thus far in the chapter, verse 13.
- “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again”
- Salvation that Jesus offers is the only way to truly cure eternal thirst
- Jesus fully revealed himself to the woman
Starting in verse 27 with Jesus speaking about “Spiritual Harvest”
- Jesus’ disciples returned surprised to see Him speaking with a woman
- However, as evident in that latter part of the verse, His character was above reproach
- He was not challenged, questioned, or speculated about as to any wrongdoing
- NOTE: Does our own character lead to such trust amongst our peers?
- vs 28
- fetching water was no small task. The woman left her water jar at the well while heading back to town.
- The water she gained was immeasurably better than the water she left behind
- fetching water was no small task. The woman left her water jar at the well while heading back to town.
- 28-30
- Woman returned to town where she didn’t have the most upstanding reputation
- Calmly, not pressing, offered the townspeople an experience
- “Could this be the Messiah”
- Gave her testimony – “see a man who told me everything I ever did”
- testimony had impact
- Calmly, not pressing, offered the townspeople an experience
- Woman returned to town where she didn’t have the most upstanding reputation
- 31-32
- Meanwhile – Disciples were concerned for Jesus and offered Him food.
- Jesus was more concerned with a spiritual harvest
- “I have food to eat the you know nothing about”
- As often as we have seen – disciples were confused
- Jesus was more concerned with a spiritual harvest
- Spiritual food on the horizon
- physical food can wait
- Meanwhile – Disciples were concerned for Jesus and offered Him food.
- 35
- Harvest is now!
- Jesus’ spiritual antennas were up
- Question: Are ours? Are we seeking, listening, looking for those who need this message?
- Jesus’ concern is doing the will of His Father. Are we?
- 36-38
- Coming to Christ is a process
- sower of the seed is not always, in fact, rarely the reaper of the harvest
- Coming to Christ is a process
- 39-41
- Stayed 2 days at their request
- Jesus displays His willingness to ALWAYS be available
- Hearts moved
- Trusted Him
- Stayed 2 days at their request
Bird’s Nest went on to share some secrets of reading and discerning Scripture.
S-P-E-C-S
(S) ins to foresake – Food you don’t know about
(P) promises to claim – Eternal eyes at all time
(E) xamples to follow – care about others, teamwork
(C) ommands to obey – Open your eyes to the field – ripe for harvest
(S) ummary – My story is good enough to give away
Great nugget for all of us to use in many aspects of life, but especially reading scripture. T-claps to Bird’s Nest.
Prayer to exit, and we’ll return next Tuesday to finish Chapter 4.
