Description

Episode 10: follow the story of Genesis from creation to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob

Isaac and Rebecca had twins called Esau and Jacob. Isaac's favourite was Esau and Rebecca's favourite was Jacob. But God doesn't show favouritism and parents shouldn't either. Esau and Jacob didn't get along.

Esau gave up his birthright for some stew, because he didn't value his inheritance. And then Jacob and Rebecca tricked Isaac into giving Jacob his blessing, instead of Esau. When we lie to each other, there are sad consequences. But amazingly, God is still able to work through people's sin to keep his promises.

Suitable for primary school aged children.
