NOTICE: All existing episodes will be moved to Season 1 on December 20.
Today we meet Abraham’s grandsons, Jacob and Esau. Jacob, known for his deceitful ways, manages to gain the birthright and blessing intended for his older brother, Esau. We explore the significance of God's announcement that "the older will serve the younger" and how it plays out in the lives of these two brothers. Despite their flaws, we see how God's blessing is ultimately a gift and not something earned through deceit or strength. Jacob's struggle with God leads to a name change and confirmation of his inheritance of the Abrahamic Covenant promises.
Readings: Genesis 25:19-33, Genesis 27:1-45, Genesis 32:24-30
