Pastor Tony Liuzzo (Lead Pastor) - ​Genesis 25 (Romans 6:12; 7:18; 12:21; James 4:17; 2 Thessalonians 3:10; Genesis 25:21-28; 27:1-4, 6-8, 18-24, 30-36 & 41-44; Psalms 51:5; Proverbs 22:6; Matthew 16:24; 19:30)

Have you ever heard someone say, “My life is such a mess”—or maybe you’ve said it yourself? The truth is, life didn’t start out this way. Somewhere along the road, things got complicated. Choices were made. Words were spoken. Wounds were created. And now we’re left carrying regret, family drama that only seems to grow worse, and patterns of decisions we wish we could undo.

The problem is, these things don’t simply disappear. They stack up. They linger. And over time, life can begin to feel heavy—almost unbearable.

Here’s the good news: the Bible is filled with stories of people whose lives were just as messy. We’re talking about broken families, terrible decisions, and lifelong regrets. One of those stories is the life of Jacob. And while his life is marked by deception, conflict, and consequence, that’s not where his story ends.

That’s the beauty of Jacob’s story—he doesn’t stay in the mess. There’s a turning point. There’s healing. And his journey becomes more than just his own story; it becomes a powerful picture of what God can do with our messes when we surrender them to Him.

So let’s be honest. Let’s get real. And let’s discover how the power of God can bring transformation—even in the middle of our mess.
