The Aetherlight Episode 2 Resistance PlanSample

Stranger in a Strange Land

Have you ever run into someone you know in an unexpected context, like seeing a teacher at the cinema or a neighbor while you are on vacation? What was that like? How surprised were you?

When the Scarlet Man shows up, it's not for Julian but to talk to Lily and Rose. Were you surprised to see him there? Who would you have expected him to meet with?

Something to think about while you are reading today’s passage:

The gods of Jacob's day were often local deities, connected to specific nations or people groups. The idea of going somewhere else and God being available to people there was a pretty novel one. Do some people still act that way? What does it say about God that he heard and responded to Rachel and Leah's cries in a foreign land? How wide-reaching is the promise He is committed to keeping?
