Talks On The Road

Did Rebekah act in faithful obedience to God’s promises, or did she sin in the deception of Isaac? In this episode, we wrestle with one of the most difficult questions in Genesis 27. Knowing that God had already declared “the older shall serve the younger,” Rebekah seeks to secure the blessing for Jacob through manipulation and deceit rather than trusting the Lord to accomplish His Word in His own way. Was her motive righteous while her methods were sinful? Or was her entire approach an act of unbelief? Listen to Pastor Matt as he further unpacks this part of Genesis 27.

Talks On The Road

We want to further reflect on Genesis 23. While much of our focus was on the transaction surrounding Sarah’s burial—the purchase of the cave—we didn’t fully explore the deeper shape of the gospel woven into this text.
