Jacob: Journaling the Journey
And you thought your family was dysfunctional . . .
Strap on your sandals and get ready for the journey of a lifetime. Jacob’s lifetime—and yours. Journaling the Journey follows the story of the patriarch as he treks through the desert and grows from an impetuous mama’s boy into one of the founding fathers of the faith. Along the way, you’ll meet his quirky, yet lovable family members—such as “Manipu-Mom” Rebecca, “Wild Thing” Esau, and Rachel, Queen of High Maintenance—who played such vital roles in his life.
What could God possibly have to say to us as women through the life of this rough and tumble Old Testament hero? Plenty. And with the distinctive journaling format of this study, every woman will take away God’s unique and personal message for her own life. So come take a stroll across the sands of time with Jacob, and take the first step on your journey to a closer walk with God.
Michelle Lesley serves as the Associational Prayer Coordinator for the Baptist Association of Greater Baton Rouge, working with over 100 churches and pastors to increase corporate prayer. She also sings on the praise team, assists her husband with his duties as minister of music at their church, and home schools her three youngest children. Journaling during her quiet time led Michelle into a deeper and more intimate relationship with God, and it is out of these journals that her first book, a women’s Bible study on the life of Jacob, grew.
SPECIAL Through September 2012, all author royalties from the sale of this book will be donated to the International Mission Board of the Southern Baptist Convention to evangelize, translate Bibles, and provide humanitarian aid as needed to an Unreached People Group in roughly the same geographic location in which the story of Jacob took place.
