Wrestling with God: Faith, Transformation, and Leadership in the New Year
Manage episode 458794529 series 3622881
In this New Year’s episode of Coffee with the Superintendent, Dr. Jack Farmer explores Genesis 32:24–32 in The Holy Spirit’s Water, focusing on Jacob’s wrestling match with God. We examine what it means to wrestle with God today—not physically, but spiritually and emotionally—as we seek His blessing, guidance, and transformation. Drawing insights from reformed theologians, we unpack what it means to have striven with God and prevailed and how this struggle of faith shapes our identity, purpose, and dependence on Him as we step into the new year.
In The Add-Ins, we continue our series on God as the Perfect Leader by looking at Principle #7—God Himself Supervised. We reflect on God’s daily visits to the Garden of Eden as a relational leadership model and explore how presence, encouragement, and accountability are vital for effective leadership today. From biblical examples like Paul’s letters to the churches to modern practices, we learn how to lead intentionally and build trust in those we guide.
Whether starting this year with renewed goals or facing spiritual challenges, this episode will inspire you to wrestle with God in prayer, trust His leading, and step boldly into His purpose for you. Grab your coffee, and let’s begin 2025 with faith, leadership, and hope!
