    Genesis 32 January 17, 2004 I can hardly believe that the last time we looked together into the book of Genesis was October 5. We need to remind ourselves of where we are in the narrative.

    THE LABOR OF LOVE (GENESIS 29:9-35) One of the best quotes on love I know of comes from Liz Carpenter. She said, “Love is a moment and a lifetime.
