This God Is Not Angry
from For Better, For Verse Hosted by Justin Crisp
In this episode, Justin and Jewelle explore Genesis chapters 22 to 42, discussing the themes of sacrifice, deceit, and God's faithfulness. They delve into the story of Abraham's near-sacrifice of Isaac, the prosperity of Isaac and Jacob, and the complex relationships within Jacob's family, including his deceitful dealings with his father-in-law, Laban. Weaving together a close reading of the psychodrama of Abraham's family, the philosophy of Søren Kierkegaard, and the history of religions, Justin and Jewelle emphasize the importance of trusting in God's character and promises—and in His overriding, merciful purpose for each one of us and our world.
