Limping with God: Jacob & the Old Testament Guide to Messy Discipleship by Chad Bird

Leaders: Gregg and Kristin Marsh

Dates: Thursday Evenings, January 22– April 23 (No study on March 19)

Times: 6:30 PM – 8:30 PM

Description: Jacob seems to be anything but a model disciple. He’s a trickster, liar, and selfishly ambitious man who fathers children with four women and leads a dysfunctional family rife with jealousy and backstabbing. But Jacob is also Israel, the namesake of the Old Testament community of God, chosen and blessed. As such, this sinner-saint, who limps along with the Lord, burdened by weakness and beset by problems, is the mirror image of all of us who follow Jesus. In his life, we see our lives, our struggles, our failures, and most especially the God who loves us and chooses us as his own.
