Have you ever felt like your past mistakes, failures, or shortcomings have disqualified you from God’s plan?

In this message, An Encounter with God’s Grace, Pastor Tom Messer walks through Genesis 28 and the life-changing moment when Jacob encountered God at Bethel.

Jacob wasn’t a hero. He was a deceiver, a manipulator, and a man running from the consequences of his own choices. Yet in one of his lowest moments, God met him with grace.

This powerful message reminds us that God’s love is not earned through performance, achievement, or good behavior. His grace reaches us even when we least deserve it. Through Jacob’s story, we discover that God has been at work in our lives long before we recognized His presence, and that a genuine encounter with Him changes more than our circumstances—it changes us.

If you’ve ever wondered whether God can use someone with a messy past, this message is for you.

Watch now and discover the life-changing power of God’s grace.
