What’s In a Name?

October 13, 2024 • Damon Strom • Genesis 35

This week we return to our study of Genesis. As we continue to examine the life of Jacob, we’ll see how God’s truth is able to heal our brokenness and how it enables us to become conduits of his healing love for others.

The Rinse Cycle

November 10, 2024 • Damon Strom

Life’s challenges, like Joseph’s trials, can feel like an endless cycle of setbacks. Yet in moments of suffering, God is with us, forming our character, growing our faith, and preparing us for His purpose as we trust Him to bring us through each wave.

“Help” in Egyptian

November 17, 2024 • Scot Pollok • Genesis 42, Genesis 43:1–15

It’s been a minute since Joseph’s original prophetic dreams as a kid. Now, as Master of all of Egypt, the only place that has food, Joseph’s betraying brothers come looking for help. In this dramatic story we see much about faith, forgiveness and family reconciliation.

Genesis 34 Podcast

October 27, 2024 • Scot Pollok, Josh Loy & Amy Lanthrop, Erin Sanchez • Genesis 34

In our study of Genesis on Sundays, we’ve walked through some difficult passages together. Chapter 34 may be the most difficult passage of all because of the sexual violence it details. To give this story the care and attention it deserves, we’ve recorded a podcast episode in place of a shorter Sunday morning sermon. Doing so allowed more time to honor the content and the opportunity for multiple trusted and qualified voices to join the discussion. God’s decision not to omit this story from His Word demonstrates His commitment to provide grace and care even in the harshest realities of life this side of heaven. We hope this discussion will shine light into places that remain dark and that the Lord will use it for healing and reconciliation.
