"The Face of God" - Genesis 33:1-20 (What is Your Name?)

After a life-altering wrestling match with God, Jacob emerges with a new name, a new identity and a blessing. However, the time quickly comes for the new man to face up to his old problems. Immediately after leaving Peniel, Jacob comes face to face with Esau for the first time in 20 years. Nonetheless, instead of finding anger, vengeance and retaliation, Jacob is surprised to find a brother who welcomes him home with open arms. This week we will discuss reconciliation, restoration, and the way our Christian identity flows into mending the broken relationships of our life. How does your life reveal the face of God and the face of grace to those who have wronged you?
