Contributed by Andrew Drummond on Mar 27, 2006

We live in a day when people love to worship only when the mood is right, the sun is shining, and everything is okay, but this is not biblical. We need to be a people of worship...no matter how we feel. We need to make a choice...

Do we do it only when the sun is out and we’re happy? This type of Christian thinking falls apart when things don’t go well. When you are feeling ...read more

In this strange wrestling match between Jacob and God, friends struggle with one another and the weaker overcomes the stronger. Find out how God used this wrestling match to help Jacob mature in his faith.
