Jacob: Wrestling with God
Jacob grasped, schemed and ran, yet God met him again and again and would not let him go. These seven days follow his story from Genesis 25 to 33, exploring family wounds, deception, God's undeserved presence, honest wrestling in prayer and the costly road to reconciliation.
