Rabbi Lawrence will share a message from this week’s Parashah Vayishlach (He Sent) from Genesis 32:3-36:43. The message is titled, “Israel Born Out of Struggle.” This sermon reminds us that Israel was born out of struggle—Jacob wrestled with God and emerged transformed. Throughout history, God’s people have faced trials, yet they have persevered and held on until the dawn of deliverance. Similarly, God calls us to embrace our struggles, for it is through them that He shapes us into overcomers. Hold on in faith, trusting that God’s blessing and purpose will come through the trials, just as they did for Jacob.
