Our fundamental goal is ”knowing God.” The essential assumption is that the Bible is God’s message to humanity so that God will be known and loved by God’s Creation. The Bible is sufficient in and of itself, so that thoughtful study of it will lead to ever-increasing intimacy with God.
Each week we’ll endeavor to engage Scripture and tradition and to bring them into our present reality. Since I am a working pastor I will use the same sources for this podcast that inform my weekly preaching and teaching duties. These days I am drawing upon the Revised Common Lectionary. This examination of the Word will be based on all but one of the scheduled readings from the RCL, since a podcast of my weekly sermon message covering one of the readings is already posted each week.

Lean Into Your Weakness: Jacob, Joseph, and God's Crazy Love
Pastor Dan reflects on prayer and the biblical stories of Jacob and Joseph (Genesis 32–50 and Hebrews 11) to show how God turns our weaknesses and wounds into blessings and new identity.
Through metaphor, scripture, and personal testimony, the episode encourages leaning into dependence on God, practicing regular prayer, forgiving others, and trusting that God can graft a new, redemptive story from our brokenness.
