In this episode of Don’t Miss This, Dave Butler and Grace Freeman walk through Genesis 24–33 and step into one of the greatest story arcs in all of scripture. From Isaac and Rebekah’s love story to Jacob’s rivalry with Esau, these chapters remind us that God writes beautiful stories through very imperfect people.
What begins as a rom-com at a well slowly unfolds into betrayal, broken relationships, wilderness nights, and wrestling prayers. Yet in the middle of deception, fear, and family mess, God shows up. He meets Jacob in a no-name place, speaks promises over him at rock bottom, and reveals Himself as the God who brings ladders, angels, and grace into the most undeserving moments.
This episode is a reminder that the scriptures do not hide the complicated parts of our humanity. Instead, they reveal a God who meets us there, who turns shame into altars, who gives new names, and who helps us prevail. If you have ever wondered whether your story is too messy for God to redeem, this lesson is for you.
