Back to Basics, Episode 48: Jacob Sends Presents to Appease Esau (Genesis 32, Part 1)

Welcome to our "new" series, "Back to Basics!" (Well...by new, we mean...repurposed. This isn't the same as the previous series by the same name!)

In this series, Pastor Don and Courtney Fraley are going to explore the Bible, one story at a time, starting at the beginning, and working our way forward until we either get bored or run out of Bible! Tune in every week for a brief exploration of the next chapter in that thrilling and oft-misunderstood story, the Bible!

In today's episode, we're sticking with our boy Jacob, and seeing just how much he's been changed by all these years of dealing with Laban's BS. Have you ever wondered what trauma-induced hyper-vigilance looks like in a Biblical character? Was the author of Genesis using literary techniques from Mark before the Gospels made it cool? Is this what it looks like when a high school bully tries to make good? How good of an apology is a "please-don't-kill-me" present train? Check out today's episode to find out about all that and more!
