#016 - We're back! In this episode, we open Season 2, episode 1 of Scars & Ashes. A new series focused on Genesis 34. We explore Jacob's backstory, watching as his decisions ultimately lead him to Shechem. It would seem that this place, full of idolatry and unholy living, would not be a place that a man like Jacob would want to live. Contrary to what one would expect, Jacob buys land there. Jacob was out of place. God did not tell him to go to Shechem. Would Dinah, his only daughter's trajectory been different if Jacob would have obeyed God? Would it have been different if his family was in a place of people trying to live their lives honoring God? We could play "would have, should have, could have" and "what if" all day. But it won't change what happened to Dinah. Being out of place and purpose can have costly consequences. Make your decisions wisely. 

Note: This series contains reference to sexual violence.

God over everything. All His praises, let us sing!
