About this listen

Pastors Adam Parker and Matthew Poole discuss the complicated family dynamics of Jacob, Rachel, and Leah. They explore the rivalry between the sisters and their desperate attempts to earn Jacob's love through childbearing, drawing connections to Paul's teaching in Romans about works versus grace. They offer encouragement to parents who recognize dysfunction in their own homes, reminding listeners that God faithfully raises up covenant children even from imperfect families. Matthew's evening sermon series on the "Life of Joseph" continues on the fourth Sunday of each month.
