    Jacob’s family life is almost continual strife. As great Jacob became, he will see him transform before our eyes in the weeks to come. From a scheming manipulator to a humbled man, Jacob transforms by the grace of God.

    We continue our series, My Crazy Family, only it is the Tailgate edition. It gets even crazier today. Great things can come from broken families. Jacob is a complex character – he’s truly a piece of work. For much of his life, this much was true of Jacob – Jacob always put Jacob first in every area ...read more

    Jacob rolls over in the morning and the woman beside him is not the woman of his dreams. The same thing has happened to many couples. We wake up one day and think we’ve married the wrong person. What are you to do?

    Because of her "ugliness" (weak eyes) Leah was unnoticed, unwanted & unloved… and unmarried. She was literally a rejected woman. How did God help her overcome her rejection?

    A lady was walking down the street on her way to work & saw a parrot in a pet store. She went in to admire the bird, and suddenly the parrot spoke to her, “Hey lady. You’re ugly.” Well, the woman was deeply offended, and she stormed out of the store. But on her way home, she thought she’d ...read more

    The Well, The Women, And The Wait Series

    Contributed by Brian Williams on Feb 18, 2025
     | 687 views

    We all have unsettled issues in our hearts. Some want to put a lot of time and distance between these unresolved issues, even a change of scenery, which may be necessary to get some clarity. I believe God wants us to identify these issues and work through them.

    The Well, the Women, and the Wait Genesis 29:1-30 16 Feb 2025 Last week, Scott spoke from Genesis 28 where Jacob was running from his brother Esau who was planning to kill him because he took the family blessing and inheritance that he was expecting to get.

     | 1,278 views

    Leah’s story reminds us that God’s favour is not based on human approval. Though unloved by Jacob, she was loved by God and became an important part of His divine plan. Her life teaches us to find fulfilment in God rather than in people’s opinions.
