Family of Promise: Jacob’s Dream
Welcome to another episode of the Descend Podcast! If you’re new here, welcome! Each week, we take Sunday’s sermon and descend into what it looks like to live it out in our everyday lives as we share the love of Christ with those around us. Our prayer is that this podcast would encourage you and remind you of God’s goodness throughout your week.
This week, Haley is joined by pastors Aaron LeDuc and Jacob Chacko as we continue through our new series “Family of Promise”. Jacob taught through Genesis 28:10-22 this past Sunday on a sermon titled “Jacob’s Dream”. Listen HERE!
- Why do we sometimes feel like we need to wait until we have things figured out before we come to God sometimes? What does God actually want us to do?
- Jacob you mentioned that our culture really prizes self-reliance. Being capable, independent, and in control. Where do you personally struggle with that idea?
- Can we expand a little more on the gospel tie-in from yesterday’s message? If someone in our church is in a season where they feel uncertain, tired, or like they’ve made a mess of things, what would you not want them to miss from this passage as it relates to the gospel?
- How do we tend to miss God’s presence in ordinary moments or stressful seasons? What can we do in those situations to reorient our gaze on God?
- What could it look like for you this week to live more aware of God’s presence instead of just trying harder to manage life? What’s something practical you want to surrender to God this week?
