Who do you know that is hurting today? Maybe a friend, a neighbor, a family member, maybe you?

If life is hard right now and you need help getting unstuck from the pain, stay with me as we learn Jesus' secret

to helping those that hurt him. That's today.

Welcome to this edition of Living on the Edge with Chip Ingram.

The mission of these daily programs is to intentionally disciple Christians

through the Bible teaching of Chip Ingram.

You know one of the common misconceptions about Jesus today

is that he perpetuated a male-dominated society

in First Century Israel

and didn't really care about women.

But as Chip continues his study in the Gospel of

John, he'll reveal that that idea couldn't be further from the truth. We're going to

learn how Jesus intentionally broke cultural taboos to accept and advocate for women.

But before we dive into this valuable program, let me encourage you to get Chip's message notes.

He's going to use a lot of verses today to back up his points so it'll

be helpful to have them in front of you. Download them under the broadcasts tab at

Living on the Edge.org app listeners tap fill in notes.

Okay, if you have a Bible, go now to John Chapter 4

for Chips Talk, Jesus models his mission.
