God's Messy Family - Finding Your Place When Life Isn't Perfect (The Connected Life Series)

Genealogy is, widely considered to be, one of the fastest growing hobbies in the U.S. We have become consumed with constructing our family tree in an attempt to trace our lineage. Fortunately, the Bible does an excellent job helping us trace the ancestry of our faith family. Pastor and author Jacob Armstrong takes an in-depth look at our faith lineage focusing specifically on the messy family dynamics found in the book of Genesis. As we begin to understand the life stories of Abraham, Sarah, Isaac, Rebekah, Jacob and Esau we find that their pattern looks a lot like ours--we are called, we mess up, and God continues to redeem us. Find out how your "messy family" fits into God's family and how you are a part of God's plan for the world. The six-session DVD features Jacob Armstrong in his warm, engaging style guiding participants through the study. Each video segment is approximately 10-12 minutes in length and, when combined with the six book chapters, make an ideal six-week group study. All videos sessions are closed captioned. Sessions include: The Myth of the Perfect Family The Gap Between What God Says and What You See No, Nothing Is Too Hard for the Lord Loss and Promise in the Family of God Promise Maker and Promise Keeper The Beauty of ImperfectionRead less
