Relational Demography in John 4: Jesus Crossing Cultural Boundaries as Praxis for Christian Leadership

Feminist Theology 25 (1):41-52 (2016)
  Copy   BIBTEX

Abstract

Utilizing social rhetorical criticism and social cultural texture, this exegetical analysis of John 4 examines the transformational interaction of Jesus and a Samaritan woman. Previous research focuses on the woman’s demographic profile without fully investigating the significance of relational demography in the context of first century Mediterranean culture. This analysis of the social cultural texture of John 4 presents a model for Christian leadership that crosses gender, race, and geographic barriers and capitalizes on the benefits of relational demography for organizational success.
