Wrestling with God? Good.

In this episode, we’re flipping the script on doubt and struggle. Because what if wrestling with God isn’t a sign you’re doing it wrong, but a sign you’re showing up?

We’ll walk with Jacob, Job, Habakkuk, David, and Jesus who brought their whole, messy selves to God and didn’t back down.

Then I'll share 5 ways we can learn from them and wrestle well without giving up or running away.

Here’s to the wrestle.

REFERENCES:

Genesis 32, Job, Habakkuk 3, Luke 22, Matthew 27
