What Happens When You Wrestle With God? – Come Follow Me – Gen 18-23 | Still Learning
Some people wrestle with church leaders. Others wrestle with culture. But what happens when you wrestle directly with God? Abraham pleads. The brother of Jared petitions. A desperate Gentile mother refuses to leave. Again and again, scripture shows that holy wrestling draws us closer to God, not farther away from Him. In this episode, Rebecca and Gunnar explore the difference between rebellion and relationship—and why wrestling may actually be a form of embrace.

What If Building Zion Starts With How I See Others? - Come Follow Me - Moses 7 | Still Learning

Did we also volunteer at the Council in Heaven? - Come Follow Me - Abraham & Moses | Still Learning
What if the hardest parts of your life weren’t assigned—but chosen? In this episode, Gunnar and Rebecca explore the idea that premortal choosing wasn’t abstract, but deeply personal. They connect Christ’s “Here am I, send me” to Isaiah’s call and to our own lives. That perspective doesn’t minimize suffering—but it can give it meaning. If we volunteered knowing growth required pain, then endurance becomes participation, not punishment. This is a conversation about courage, consent, and eternal purpose.

When silver is purified, the refiner knows it’s ready when he can see his face in it. That image — the craftsman gazing into molten silver — is one of the most tender metaphors in scripture.
