About Event

Chad Bird returns as Dean for Family Week #9 at Camp Arcadia - on August 21 - 27, 2022.

Limping with God: Jacob and the Life of Discipleship

Following Jesus feels like limping after God, as Jacob did after his wrestling match with the Lord. We hobble our way through life, beset by weakness. Our discipleship is a messy business. But that’s okay. We follow a Lord who doesn’t pick the pious but calls sinners. In these presentations, we will delve into Jacob’s life, and God’s work in his life, to see how it mirrors Christ’s work in our own.
