The Woman at the Well...Today

THE WOMAN AT THE WELL...TODAY is the story of the Samaritan woman in the Bible as told in modern times. She had many destructive relationships in her life. She was an outcast and rejected by others. Her story is no different from so many today. She made wrong choices that devastated her life. How did she get into her present situation, and what changed in her life to take her from failure to freedom? Is it your story, too?


Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great

and mighty things, which you do not know.

~ Jeremiah 33:3 ~


Wearing pajamas and socks, Barbara Tennell Rupp, a Christian for more than 13 years, was on her way to the state mental hospital. It was there that God healed her from mental illness, and alcohol and drug abuse, which spanned more than 30 years. Physical, sexual and emotional abuse led to multiple marriages, three suicide attempts, and several stays in two psychiatric hospitals.


Are you tired of making wrong choices? Are you sick and tired of being sick and tired?


Dare to explore the mighty things that God has for you. Barbara's journey will transform your faith and inspire your life. Her extreme testimony will take you from tears of sorrow to tears of joy. The Woman at the Well...Today is an intense and gripping story of overcoming shame, guilt and tremendous heartbreak.

Barbara has been teaching and training women to lead Women at the Well Bible Study, a study God led her to write more than 17 years ago. She is passionate about sharing her testimony with others of the goodness of an All-Loving, All-Merciful, and All-Forgiving God. Barbara lives with her son, daughter-in-law and two granddaughters in Southern California.
