Genesis: Antiheroes

The story of Jacob is a story about a dysfunctional family and morally ambiguous antiheroes.  An antihero is a protagonist in a story who lacks conventional heroic qualities and attributes such as idealism, courage and morality.  Although antiheroes may sometimes do the right thing, it is not always for the right reasons, often acting primarily out of self-interest.

As we read this story we feel dissatisfied, yet drawn in. Why does God choose this dysfunctional family? Why does God choose its deceitful son Jacob?  What’s the moral of this story?

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT

Refuge is designing a step based discipleship platform based off the exemplary model of AA (steps with one-on-one guidance and accountability).

• Intended to encourage those who want to grow deeper in their relationship with Christ and live in the fullness of that identity
• Be a part of a team to build something very impactful from the ground up
• Must be consistently available to contribute. Your time and abilities are very needed.  Also if you have the desire to disciple someone in this program, you will need to be readily available

This is not an addiction rehab program. We are simply using AA as a basis for this new discipleship model, because it has transformed millions and millions of lives around the world.

We are not seeking more “ideas”, we are actively seeking ongoing, consistent contributors who want to be a part of building this new model at Refuge.
