Jesus and the Samaritan Woman

Sacred Endurance
Written By Trillia Newbell

God’s Word tells us that to endure in this life we must fix our eyes on Jesus (Heb. 12:2). But what does it mean to fix your eyes on someone you can’t see?

The Gospels tell stories about Jesus that show us his character. We learn how he interacted with people and the world around him. By studying these stories, we learn to set our eyes and hearts on him.

Jesus interacted with all kinds of people, but there’s something beautiful, convicting, countercultural, and transformative about Jesus’s interactions with women.

Sacred Endurance is not an advent book or devotional but it is a book intentionally centered on Jesus. This is our sacred endurance: running the race of the Christian life set before us by the grace of God, through the strength of God, until the day we face our God. The writer of Hebrews tells us that to run this race set before us, we look to Jesus (Heb 12:2). Head on over to Instagram to enter: Sacred Endurance and Christmas CD Giveaway
