What are you really wrestling for?
In Episode 6 of our “From Bystander to Builder” series, Pastor Evan Ryder explores Jacob’s life-changing encounter with God in Book of Genesis 32 and uncovers a challenging truth: everybody is building something with their life.
Jacob spent years striving for blessing, identity, security, and control. He was ambitious, resourceful, and driven—but he was ultimately building his own kingdom. At the Jabbok River, everything changed. In the darkness, Jacob wrestled with God and discovered that true transformation begins when our deepest desires are reordered around the presence of God.
This episode explores:
- Why humans are shaped by desire
- The difference between building our kingdom and God’s Kingdom
- How striving and self-sufficiency leave us exhausted
- Why God meets people in the middle of their wrestling
- What it means to cling to God instead of control
If you’ve ever wrestled with fear, identity, purpose, approval, or the pressure to hold your life together, this conversation will encourage and challenge you.
Because eventually our lives move in the direction of our deepest loves.
Join us as we rediscover what it means to stop building around ourselves and begin participating in the Kingdom God is building.
