Genesis 31:46

God's Word is one glorious, world-changing story. Archaeologist and theologian Amanda Hope Haley scrapes back 2,000 years of misguided cultural interpretations to reveal Scripture in its historical, archaeological, and literary contexts. Far from a dry academic exercise, this process reveals how our misunderstandings developed and revitalizes the Bible stories you thought you knew, all with the greater purpose of encouraging a daily, intentional, and rigorous study of God’s Word.

Have you ever heard the saying, “They really lived down to their name?” Not really. It is more likely that you would have heard it said that one lived up to their name. When one lives down to their name, it suggest there wasn’t much hope of good for them. In this series we look at the life of Jacob.

This devotional is about God changing Jacob to Israel. This is a process and the the way God works in our lives. It is good to understand the process and be alive to God's ways in our own lives, and allow Him to transform us to what He wants us to be.

Do you tend to think of Jesus’ blood only as the agent that cleanses your sin? Do you know it does exceedingly more than that? Understanding the power that is available to you through His shed blood will revolutionize your Easter season and produce powerful results on a day-to-day basis.
