This sermon explores the biblical story of Jacob, highlighting his complex character as a trickster who maintains a persistent and intimate relationship with God. The Rev. Lucy Strandlund uses Jacob's narrative to illustrate that faith is not about perfection, but about ongoing dialogue, wrestling with doubt, and maintaining a deep connection with the divine, even through life's challenges and personal struggles.
