Heroes Of The Bible: Jacob Series

Contributed by Scott Bayles on Feb 17, 2022

The Bible is full of heroes! They don't wear spandex or fly around in capes and cowls, but God empowered these heroes and heroines to accomplish some pretty amazing feats that can inspire us to become heroes of God ourselves. Our next hero is Jacob. (Aliterated Outline, PowerPoint)

Come And See Jesus (John 1:43-51) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 5, 2022

Nathaniel is open-minded enough to come see Jesus for himself, and overcomes his initial skepticism. This makes him the ideal Israelite. Also, Jesus is not a ladder. Angels come "to" Jesus, not "upon" him.

This week, starting in John 1:43, we find ourselves on day 4. Let's just start there: (43) On the next day, he (Jesus) wished to depart to Galilee, and he finds Philip, and Jesus says to him, "Follow me." Already in the gospel of John, we've seen a number of people take the ...read more

God Loves Camping

Contributed by Paul Robinson on Oct 4, 2022

The best way to get to know God is by spending some alone time with Him. We see this is true for Bible characters who went "camping" and while they were alone, God met with them.

Honestly, I don’t like camping too much. I’m away from the comforts of home, living on simple food, risking my life with wild animals around, etc. I’m not an outdoor-type person. But did you know that God loves camping? Here in Genesis 28, Jacob goes camping while on the way to his Uncle Laban’s ...read more

On the ladder there are the messengers of God who were traveling up and down, between heaven and earth. They were delivering the people petitions to God in heaven, and they were bringing God’s answers back down to help the people of the earth.  

Genesis 28:12-15 By Pastor J.W.T. Spies   The story of Jacob and his brother Esau is a tangled one, filled with deceit, dishonesty, conspiracy and animosity. Esau despised his birthright, and sold it to brother Jacob for a pot of stew. Jacob then deceived their father and got him to bless him ...read more

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Sep 21, 2023

Jacob, el hombre egoísta, cuya vida sin Dios lo llevó a la desesperación, llegó a un punto en el que necesitaba al Señor. Dios le habló a Jacob a través de un sueño. A ese sueño lo llamamos la escalera de Jacob.

Como creyentes en Jesucristo, estamos llamados a ser diferentes. Esta diferencia se puede ver muy claramente cuando tenemos una actitud adecuada al dar a Dios. Un espíritu generoso al dar es un marcado contraste en un primer mundo egoísta. Jacob tiene una experiencia con Dios y es ...read more
