God shapes our story for His purposes. We don’t know how He does that, but it’s extremely comforting because we all, to some degree, have dysfunctional families. If God can speak into the chaos of the patriarchal family through their enormous dysfunction—we read of rape and retribution and hostile rivalries— and by bringing meaningful design, just as He spoke into the chaos of Genesis and brought forth a world teeming with life and beauty, He can speak into our lives with the same purpose and the same result. #brendonnaicker #londoncitychurch #theologyschool #joburgchurch #dysfunctionalfamily
