Read Genesis 38

Well, some family dysfunction, or rather some more family dysfunction! Makes me feel at home reading the scriptures. God is no stranger to our unhealthy styles of relating! He just wants us to cooperate in the change.

  • How has it seemed that living amongst a pagan culture has impacted Israel’s family?
  • Where do you see faithless action for both Tamar and Judah?
  • In Matthew 1, Tamar is listed as 1 of 5 women in the lineage of Jesus. Jesus, descended from the line of Judah, is familiar with generational sin and poor choices. How does it encourage you that these two are direct descendants of Jesus?
