About this episode
The episode explores the deeper meanings of Bible stories as adults, focusing on the theme of wrestling with God and the exhaustion of striving for control.
From the series, "Bible Stories For Adults" with Dave Stimers. If you grew up in church you were taught Bible stories as a kid. As we grow up and read those stories again, sometimes we realize that there’s a lot more to them than we originally thought. Join us as we jump back into this series from last summer to take a closer look at some of those classic stories and see what they say to us now that we’re a little more grown up! Part 7: Wrestling With God. Many of us spend our lives trying to carry more, control more, and accomplish more, believing that everything depends on us. This Bible story speaks to anyone who is exhausted from striving, worried about outcomes, or discovering the limits of their own strength.
