When God Stoops Down
It can be difficult to understand how and where to read in the Bible - especially the Old Testament. If you sort this podcast from oldest to newest, and start with the very first podcast, together we walk through the story that God is writing, starting in Genesis. We build on that beginning to highlight the important events, as we weave together, and begin to understand, God’s bigger story of relationship and rescue. Knowing the story from the beginning is important, because the more we know about God, the more clearly we can understand ourselves. If you’ve struggled to know how to understand the Old Testament, and how it is relevant to you now, this podcast will help you to discover more truths about the Lord, and yourself, through the story God has been writing since the beginning of time. As each podcast says, we want you to know more about who God is and who you are because of Him. This podcast is for those seeking to understand/learn the Bible, for those who need encouragement, for those who want to start their day off with an uplifting word, and for those who aren’t sure about God and want to meet Him in the safety of their own space.

Genesis chapter 33:20, “There he (Jacob) erected an altar, and called it El Elohe Israel."
Jacob is giving God a new name - God, the God of ME. Is God YOUR God? Is He personal to you? Also, we discover in this story that God gives Jacob a new name, as well. His new name represents a new life and a new person, now fully surrendered to the Lord. You also get to be called by a new name. When we belong to God, we are called to live in freedom, in peace, in protection, as children of God Himself. Discover yourself in Jacob's story.

Genesis 32:24 "And Jacob was left alone and a man wrestled with him until the breaking of the day."
One of the most intimate things you can do with someone else is to wrestle with them. You want to know how to get close to God? Wrestle with Him. In this story, and in my own, we see that God is o.k. with your wrestling. He will meet you in your darkest hour when you most feel alone and remind you that He wants nothing more than to be close to you.

Genesis 22:14. "So Abraham called the name of that place, 'The Lord will provide.'"
God has provided a way for you to have a relationship with you. He has ALREADY provided for your doubt, your fears, your wrong choices... for MY struggles. He isn't surprised by them. Instead, he prepared for them.

A woman named Hagar teaches us so much about our worth and our value to God. He reminds us that His promises to us are not hinged on our circumstances or people in our life who refuse to value us.
