Bible Text: Genesis 27:12-46, Genesis 28:11-22, John 1:47-51, Psalms 20 | Speaker: Nathan Richey | Series: Typology of Adam |  

Do you feel stuck in a bad situation? As we look at life of Jacob we see bad advice, a dysfunctional family, a brother’s hatred, a long journey, and a vision. Through Jacob’s story we can find hope, knowing that God finds us right where we are at in our own culture, in our own brokenness, and in our own disbelief. We can learn that restoration is not found in anything we do but rather by putting our faith in God and allowing him to restore us.

Listen for the reminder that you have not been sent to the penalty box and be challenged by the comparison of Esau as he tries to act like a God follower. And what is the bonus promise given to Jacob?

This sermon will likely make you want to read the rest of the story of God bringing restoration between the brothers and becoming Jacob’ God.
