The Aetherlight Episode 2 Family PlanSample

Playing the Long Game

Jacob's experiences with Laban seem like poetic justice. How do we usually feel when a cheater gets cheated? Do you think this situation is a reflection of God's intent or the realities of broken people in a broken world?

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

Laban does his best to see Jacob comes out second best here. God chooses to work within the situation though, rather than rescue Jacob from it. Why do you think that is? What is the bigger picture God might be working toward? How can we respond to the injustice we face and what we see in the world around us?

Something to talk about with players of The Aetherlight:

Larry tricks the player into helping him cheat Julian out of an airship he has worked hard on. It might be a good discussion starter around injustice, how God works in broken situations and how we can respond.
