Sunday School Stories: Jericho | Joshua 6
June 16th, 2024 Speaker: Christy Penley | Joshua 6 When life is hard we need perseverance. Oftentimes we quit. Sometimes we pray but it is easy to feel that since we’ve asked for something, the answer to our prayers should immediately be forthcoming or our need should quickly be met. However, God is not a bellhop, just waiting to give us exactly what we want the moment that we want it. And that is painful. Agonizing. Piercing to our hearts.

Sunday School Stories: Jacob Wrestles the Angel | Genesis 32:22-32

Showing us who we really are, giving us the space to wrestle it out until we can see him clearly.
