About this episode
Every Christian lives their life at a place the Bible calls Mahanaim. We live at the intersection of two worlds, the visible and the invisible. We stand on the border between the tangible threats we can see, count, and measure, and the unseen armies of the living God. The great test of the Christian life is this: which camp will you believe is more real? The one you can see with your eyes, or the one you can only see by faith? After twenty years of exile, serving a master schemer who was, in many ways, his own reflection in a mirror, he is returning to the Promised Land. But you cannot simply go home and pretend the past did not happen. The past has a way of waiting for you, and Jacob's past is waiting for him in the form of his brother Esau.
