Faith Integration 501-Ms. Stone and the Woman at the Well
Storyboard Text
- Ms. Stone was overwhelmed. She was having a difficult time managing her diverse class. They were not getting along, being unkind, and certainly were not focusing on lessons.
- I told her that I was here to change things. That soon it will not matter where you're from or what you've done, just that you worship with spirit, truth, heart, and mind.

- She took a deep breath, and Jesus came to her."Remember the story of the woman at the well?"
- The woman was so used to being treated as unclean, by her own and even by some of my people, that she initially could not trust the respect and kindness I showed her. Her spirit was so downtrodden that she regarded me with disgust at first, sure I was there to condemn her. She knew she had made mistakes, but felt powerless to do anything to change her situation.
- The Samaritan woman I met at the well was an outcast. Her behavior had been shunned by the entire village. They made her fetch her water alone in high noon heat, as no one would be seen with her.
- It took some convincing, but I revealed myself to her as the Messiah. I chose her specifically to be the first to know, because I knew she needed to see the love of Our Father more than anyone. Finally believing in my word, and herself, she cried happy tears. She could not wait to tell the world.

- "Thanks Jesus. I know what to do," said Ms. Stone with a smile. She started with Tommy, the desk climber.
- Ms. Stone remembered that kids are all different, and they are still learning how to behave in school. Instead of blaming and punishing the kids, she showed each one love and care. She worked through the emotions at the root of the issues, and everyone apologized and chose a better choice to make going forward. All of her students loved having her as a teacher now, and the rest of the year went much smoother!
