The Samaritan woman encounter with Jesus is recorded in the Gospel of John, chapter 4. Jesus and his disciples were traveling through Samaria when they stopped at a well in the town of Sychar. Jesus, tired from the journey, asked the Samaritan woman who came to draw water from the well for a drink.
The woman was surprised that Jesus, a Jewish man, would speak to her, as Jews and Samaritans did not typically interact due to religious and cultural differences. Jesus then revealed to her that he was the Messiah, and offered her "living water" that would quench her spiritual thirst forever.
The woman was intrigued by Jesus' words and asked for this living water. Jesus then revealed to her that he knew about her past, including her multiple failed marriages and current relationship. Despite her past, Jesus showed her love and compassion, and the woman recognized him as a prophet.
The encounter with Jesus led the Samaritan woman to believe in him as the Messiah and she went back to her town to tell others about him. Many Samaritans came to believe in Jesus because of her testimony, and they invited him to stay in their town for two days, during which many more people came to believe in him.
This encounter with the Samaritan woman is a powerful example of Jesus' love, compassion, and willingness to reach out to those who are marginalized or considered outcasts. It also demonstrates the transformative power of encountering Jesus and how it can lead to a changed life and a desire to share the good news with others.
