Why Would God Pick Jacob?
May 31, 2026 • Michael Sweet
In this message, we take an honest look at Jacob—and the truth is, he’s not the hero we might expect. He manipulates his brother out of his inheritance, deceives his aging father, and leaves a trail of family dysfunction in his wake. So why would God choose someone like him? Because God isn’t in the business of picking perfect people—He’s in the business of reforming scoundrels. From Abraham to Isaac to Jacob, the Bible is full of flawed, broken people who encounter a faithful God who transforms them from the inside out. And that same grace is still at work today. This message will challenge how you see biblical “heroes”… and how you see yourself.
