Conflict comes with community - it’s not a matter of if you'll
encounter it, but when. Sooner or later, someone will say or do
something that frustrates you. The question is: what will you choose in that moment? Viktor Frankl reminds us there’s a space between stimulus and response, and in that space lies our growth and our freedom. We get to decide. And there's a great deal of power in that.
This Sunday we’ll hear the wild story of Jacob and Esau, filled with deception, disguises, and a birthright hanging in the balance. Watch how these deeply flawed human beings (and their scheming mother!) push the story forward, and notice how God shows up in the midst of it all.
If you’ve ever thought, “there has to be a better way,” we’ll explore faithful practices that help us respond to difficult moments rather than simply react.
