We have a choice in following Jesus in our culture: to be a rock or a sponge. As we continue our journey through Genesis see Lot's been soaking up the culture instead of making a splash. But now, as God is about to Nuke his city Lot discovers the hard way that "A Sponge Can't Splash."
A study of Genesis 10-20. We'll see man rebel against God, God responding by scattering man around the world, and an individual called out to raise above the tide of culture.
One issue that keeps people from truly living for God is they don't feel good enough. They feel like they need to be perfect, or meet a certain standard, in order to be accepted. But we'll discover through Jacob's life that we don't need to be perfect, we just need to be obedient. We'll discover God can still bless imperfect obedience.
