Accompanying Scripture:
Ezekiel 37:1-14, John 11:25-26

Jacob Wrestles God

In Genesis, Jacob wrestles with God to a standstill. Wrestling with God can be difficult for us, and we may even feel like it’s not allowed. But God welcomes our questions and calls us into a relationship that is a holy struggle between our own desire for control and our willingness to sit in uncomfortable and uncertain places. Listen as Intern Pastor Miriam contemplates our blessed wrestlings with God, faith, and each other.

Accompanying Scripture:
Genesis 32: 9-13, 22-30
