What does it really mean to be blessed?
In this episode, Pastor Steven Hiller unpacks a complicated and often-overlooked section of Jacob’s story in Genesis, one full of striving, scheming, and spiritual confusion. Laban treats God like a vending machine. Jacob thinks clever strategies will secure his future. And yet, through it all, God is faithfully at work.
This message challenges us to re-evaluate the foundation of our faith. Is God just a means to get what we want, or is He the blessing Himself?
With insight from The Great Divorce by C.S. Lewis, we explore what it means to reject the heavy, fleeting blessings of the world and receive the real thing: life with God in His eternal Kingdom.
