This week we see Jacob making his trip to the Promised Land, but there is one problem… He has to get past Esau first. He sends a delegation to Esau and then wrestles with a man until daybreak. Who is this man? Why does Jacob think it is YHWH? Why does this interaction leave Jacob with a limp? What does this mean symbolically? All that and more this week!

Hosted by John McCambridge and Jackie Mitchell.

Story / Symbol / Spirit is a podcast about how to make sense of Scripture. The Bible is a beautiful gift from God with the power to help us know God and better understand our lives, identity, meaning, and purpose. But for many people, reading the Bible is difficult. The ancient and confusing nature of the stories within the Bible are often prohibitive to our engagement and learning. How can we make sense of the Scriptures?

We believe that Story / Symbol / Spirit is a helpful framework to begin this journey.
