Genesis 35 & 36 - Let Nothing Move You

4/1/2024
I'm joined this week by Joshua Noel of The Whole Church Podcast (https://the-whole-church-podcast.captivate.fm/) to discuss Genesis 35 & 36.

How did the death of Rachel while giving birth to Benjamin effect the whole family for years to come? Who are the descendants of Esau and why are they focused on in scripture? Can we learn anything from genealogies? How many times can Christian call Joshua a heretic? Mentioned in this episode: Zencastr ad. Use code LETNOTHINGMOVEYOU for 30% off your Zencastr subscription!
