Description: "Pastor and author Jacob Armstrong takes an in-depth look at our faith lineage focusing specifically on the messy family dynamics found in the book of Genesis. As we begin to understand the life stories of Abraham, Sarah, Isaac, Rebekah, Jacob and Esau we find that their pattern looks a lot like ours-we are called, we mess up, and God continues to redeem us. Find out how your “messy family” fits into God's family and how you are a part of God's plan for the world" -- Amazon.com.
