Saving Samaria (The Book!)
Coming October 18, 2025
(Now Available—Click here to order!)
Do you wonder how to follow Jesus in the middle of today’s cultural storm—when our world is divided, chaotic, and struggling to find hope?
Your storm may be close to home. Maybe your family, friendships, or community are being attacked, even torn apart by the pressures of our broken culture.
But there is good news. This path has been walked before.
For centuries, the Jewish people walked around the lost land of Samaria—a territory scarred by division, marked by compromise, ravaged by sin, and considered far beyond redemption.
But Jesus didn’t walk around Samaria. He walked straight through it, boldly living out seven powerful strategies—and reclaiming the heart of a shattered culture.
If Jesus’ strategies could redeem Samaria – and rewrite their story – that same saving power can rewrite the stories which break our hearts today. Saving Samaria is an invitation. To walk the path Jesus walked. And to believe that even in our most divided places, healing and redemption are closer than we can imagine.
A time for awakening
Awakening would break out in Samaria, twice. First, through a woman everyone had written off—whom we now know as The Samaritan Woman. Then, we see Philip light another fire of spiritual revival after Jesus’ ascension.
In today’s chaotic world, there is every reason to believe the same can happen today. And we can plant the seeds of our culture’s comeback when we apply the lessons of Samaria.
Join Kirk and Jenn Walden on a journey through Samaria—and see how Jesus’ ingenious strategies way back then are the very strategies we need to win back lost ground in our culture today.
