Abstract
This narrative is a personal account of the author’s experience as a called woman minister and her being included on Mike Law’s recent list in support of a Constitutional Amendment for the SBC not to “affirm, appoint, or employ a woman as pastor of any kind.” Using the text of John 4, the author identifies the encouragement the Samaritan woman found in Christ’s acknowledgment of her and in sending her as a witness and how the Samaritan woman’s experience connects to the author’s own experience of encouragement found in her call and ministry.
