September 26, 2021 • Pastor Matt Pierson • Genesis 35, Genesis 28:15, Acts 3:19

For over 30 years, God has faithfully protected and provided for Jacob as he promised he would. Now, God calls Jacob back to the land of his fathers, to rename him “Israel” and continue with the covenantal blessings given to Abraham and Isaac. Join Pastor Matt as he teaches through Genesis 35- “Turning Towards Home”, and reminds us how God might be calling us to return as well.

Genesis 48-50 - The End of the Beginnings and the Beginning of the Rest of the Story

November 21, 2021 • Pastor Jim Thomas • Genesis 48, Genesis 49, Genesis 50, Romans 3:23–24

How should we interpret the painful experiences of this life? Is there a way we can learn to forgive others as we have been forgiven by God? Join Pastor Jim as we come to the final chapters of Genesis and the Joseph narratives. While this is the end of the stories about the beginning, it is just the beginning of the rest of God’s redemption story!

Genesis 46-47 - A Sojourning Reunion

November 14, 2021 • Pastor Jim Thomas • Genesis 46, Genesis 47, 1 Thessalonians 4:13–18

Don’t you just love a good reunion story? Do you ever wonder if God has a purpose when changes come flying at you like a speeding curveball and disrupt your life? Join Pastor Jim as he walks us through some major changes in the lives of Jacob and Joseph and then shows us what those events teach us about God and whether He can be trusted.

Genesis 44-45 - The Road to Reconciliation

November 7, 2021 • Pastor Jim Thomas • Genesis 45, Genesis 44

Joseph’s brothers did not merely hurt his feelings; they kidnapped him, abused him, sold him into slavery, and in doing so, they thought they had signed his death warrant. What happened years later when they came face to face again in desperate need of Joseph’s mercy and kindness? And what can we learn from this dramatic story about finding our way towards the road to reconciliation if we have strained relationships? Join Pastor Jim as he unpacks gospel hope and practical help from Genesis 44-45.
