  Stealing the Blessing 02.08.2026 43m

  Genesis 27v6-10 with Tyler Staton So much of our striving begins with the fear that God's blessing is something we have to earn, protect, or take for ourselves.

Even in the midst of our failures, God remains relentless in blessing and redeeming his people.   Bridgetown.church/teaching

  Esau, Jacob & The Birthright 27.07.2026 44m

  Genesis 25v19-26v14 with Christian Dawson   What do you do when life feels out of your control? When desire keeps telling you to take what you want, and fear keeps telling you to protect what you have? Most of us listen. We grasp, we scheme, we self-protect. That's where we find Jacob, Esau, and Isaac, a family of grabbers and liars that God blesses anyway.   bridgetown.church/teaching
