Read or listen to Genesis 32-33 Jacob leaves Laban on the sly, gets confronted, and speaks his mind to Laban. But ultimately heads towards his home with his two wives, and his children.

Read or listen to Genesis 29-30 We pick with Jacob’s story as he flees Esau’s revenge. Again we will see an honest portrait of trust and mistrust woven into life.
