In our continuing study of Genesis, our focus shifts briefly from Jacob’s family to that of his twin brother, Esau. Esau is the father of the nation of Edom. He was a handsome man but lived by following his sinful human nature. Beginning with him, the Edomites become a large and proud nation.

After 40 years of living for himself, Jacob heeds God’s call, assumes spiritual leadership, and prepares his family to return to Bethel. Along the way we learn that Rachel dies giving birth to her second son, Benjamin. Isaac dies, too, and our study closes with Esau and Jacob burying him together.

Although Jacob has yielded to God, his past sins are coming back to haunt him. The story continues as the daughter of Jacob and Leah is raped and a tale of murder and robbery by her brothers begins.

God has dealt with Jacob and he’s been restored. Now after 20 years on the run, Jacob is ready to humble himself before Esau, the brother he deceived. What is Esau’s reaction? What happens to Jacob and his family? Travel the pages of God’s Word with Dr. McGee and find out.

The story of Jacob continues with an event Dr. McGee calls the turning point in his life. Hop aboard the Bible Bus as we witness Jacob ask for God’s help as he returns home to face Esau and God deals with Jacob by sending a man (the image of Jesus) to wrestle with Him. Jacob doesn’t yield and is crippled. Once he gives up, he’s given a new nature and a new name: Israel.

“The Lord will never give us up as long we keep coming back to Him.” That’s what Dr. McGee shares as we see Jacob and his family flee to Mt. Gilead with Laban and his brothers in hot pursuit. What happens next? Join as the story unfolds.

Uncle Laban has tricked Jacob into marrying both of his daughters. Life gets complicated. God has blessed Leah with a child, and Rachel is jealous. So she concocts a plan to get her servant pregnant, but God intervenes and opens Rachel’s womb. Jacob makes preparations to leave Laban, and God appears, telling him to go back to his homeland.

The family drama in the book of Genesis continues as we learn about the sad consequences Jacob experiences at the hand of his deceitful uncle, Laban. Together we’ll follow the love story of Jacob and Rachel and see how the fate of Leah (the older sister of Rachel) is intertwined.

Jacob is on the run and scared. Follow along as Dr. McGee’s takes us through a long lonely night in Bethel and see how God uses this pivotal situation to meet Jacob in a very special way.

The home of Isaac and Rebekah is troubled. Hop aboard the Bible Bus as the saga continues with Rebekah and her favorite son, Jacob, scheming to steal Esau’s birthright. Their deception has long-lasting consequences and is a warning to us today.

“Like father, like son.” That’s what we hear from Dr. McGee as we see Abraham’s sins carried on to his son, Isaac. Join us in Genesis 26 as Isaac lies about Rebekah being his wife, but ultimately God blesses Him for following His command not to travel to Egypt.

After the death of Sarah, Abraham marries again and his family grows. Struggling with infertility, Isaac pleads with the Lord for a son and Rebekah gives birth to twins, Esau and Jacob. Travel with us through Genesis as the fascinating story of Abraham’s family continues and Dr. McGee shares wisdom about raising godly families.

The romantic love story of Isaac and Rebekah continues. Abraham’s servant has been sent back to their home country to choose a wife for his son, Isaac. The way the servant finds God’s choice for a wife paints a beautiful parallel to how God sends His Spirit into the world today to seek out and capture the affection of God’s bride, the church.

As our study of Genesis continues, we find Isaac grown and Abraham anxious to marry him off to a godly woman. The nearby Canaanites are idol worshippers, so Abraham sends his servant back home to find a suitable match. What happens next? Join us on the Bible Bus and find out.
