Wake Before the Day

Jacob's family experienced a crisis in Genesis 34! What do we make out of this difficult chapter? What do we learn about people and about God? Join Pastor Klarc and Pastor Jonhy as they discuss the pain and consequences of sin in this chapter. @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

God often uses tough situations to remove vain human efforts to bring us back to himself. In Genesis 32 we not only see Jacob pursuing blessing but more importantly God pursuing Jacob. @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

Join Pastor Klarc and Pastor Jonhy as they discuss Genesis 30. In this podcast they will address the danger of favoritism, generational sin, God's desire to bless and God loving the unloveable. @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

In Genesis 27 we read of a prophecy fulfilled! I often wonder, why didn't Isaac retract his blessing when he realized he was tricked by Jacob? Let's discuss! @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

A prophetic word fulfilled! More family division, who would have guessed?! As Abraham's time ends we get a brief glance into the life of Isaac and the plot twist with the birth of his sons Jacob and Esau. @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

Join Pastor Klarc and Rich Rideout as they discuss Genesis 23 and how Abraham finally, and in unexpected fashion, acquired a portion of the promised land.  @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

The danger of habitual sin! Remember, nothing can put us outside the reach of God's love and redemption. At the same time, there are consequences to every decision we make. Let's learn from Genesis 20. @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

Join Klarc and Jody as they dig deep into Genesis 18. Remember God's supernatural work and timeline are often different from our own. Position yourself in a place where you can join God in his work and be blessed. @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

In Genesis 16 we see jealousy and a lack of faith cause division in the family. While Abram and Sarai saw a young woman as a tool to be used God saw her as a daughter and blessed her in the midst of her pain. @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

In episode #67 we'll discuss the importance of prioritizing relationships over stuff. Even when our material possessions fade away God's presence and promises are still here for you. Let's talk about Genesis 13! @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

Genesis 11 is a foundational chapter in the Bible because this is when humanity structurally and organizationally sets itself up against God. From Babel comes the wicked empires of Egypt, Assyria, Babylon etc. Yet even in the midst of humanity's evil Genesis 11 ends with God's grace and faithfulness coming to a pagan named Abram. @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@...

In the aftermath of the flood, God began to rebuild and repopulate the earth. When left up to their own choice humanity takes whereas God is a God of life and generosity.  @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

Genesis 6 brings up many legitimate questions: Who are the Nephilim? Can God change his mind? Is God really loving after bringing about the flood? So many question, let's dive in! @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

Genesis 4 is the first chapter post-fall. How are things going now that humans are on their own calling their own shots? Not well! Murder, envy, polygamy - an absolute train wreck! But despite humanity's brokenness the chapter ends with a hint of God's faithfulness. @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

Genesis 2 zooms in on the intimate relationship God has with his people. God "commanded" and spoke creation into being whereas God "made" Adam and Eve. Catch the difference? @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

In episode #61 we discuss Ephesians 5 and the beauty of marriage. Today people might thumb their noses at the word "submit" but when you read the Bible you see that this is exactly what Jesus did and calls us to do. When both the husband and wife do this it is nothing but a gift! @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

Pilate is in a pickle! The Jews want Jesus dead but deep down it seems he knows Jesus is innocent. The conversation between Jesus and Pilate is powerful - each flexing one's power. Jesus reminds us no one on earth would have power had it not been given to them from God. Let's unpack what this means for us today. @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

Join us as we discuss John 17 and the beauty of completing a task previously begun. We'll also throw out the idea that we should revisit our prayers asking God to change our circumstances. It's possible God has us right where he wants us and is longing to use us to do kingdom work there. @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

In this episode we talk about God as our "Good Shepherd" and the special relationship people often have with their pets! We also discuss how sin is often is our attempt to meet a legitimate need in an illegitimate way. @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

Is it possible that the "scandal" of Jesus's birth followed him into his ministry? We believe it is definitely possible. The stable, star and manger are often brought up this time of year but ask yourself this, of all the ways God could have come to us why did he come as a baby? When you look at Jesus's family you'll realize that Jesus came from the broken for the broken....

Matthew 16 offers us deep teaching, comedy and a reminder to stay focused on the mission. Jesus uses the simple things of this world like seeds and bread to teach very important kingdom truths. @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

In this episode we talk about the superstitions plaguing Herod and a fresh perspective on the "Feeding of the Five Thousand". These stories often depict Jesus beaming and exuding joy while being surrounded by so many people. However, when you read the story Jesus was seeking solitude because his cousin was just murdered. In the midst of his sadness Jesus brought love and blessing to thos...

Klarc, Bobbie and Kirbie break down Matthew 9 and discuss a variety of things. Pay attention to how our whole person is integrated (ie heart, mind, body etc). Notice the people stand in awe how a "man" could have the power of God. Lastly, receive Jesus's invitation to "follow me" on a daily basis. @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

God wants a relationship with you! He's not interested in us saying the "correct answers" in Sunday school and doing what we want the rest of the week. He wants us to live out what we say we believe. When Jesus drops this gem on the religious leaders it ruffles feathers but it's an important word for us today as well. Join Klarc & Bobbie for Matthew 7. @klarckorver @bobbiek...

Join us for some Christmas trivia and a conversation about peace with God and peace within ourselves! Let's look at Philippians 4 together. @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la
