Genesis HIStory - Genesis 34

Jun 22, 2025    Pastor Daryl

Today's message is a tragedy and travesty in that Dinah, Jacob and Leah's only daughter, is preyed upon by a powerful, privileged, perverse young man in Genesis 34. This sermon addresses the difficult topic of sexual violence against women. The message emphasizes the need for men, especially in the church, to be active advocates against such violence. Pastor Daryl critiques Jacob's passive response to his daughter's assault and praises the brothers' protective actions, while also questioning the extent of their revenge. The sermon calls for proportionate justice and highlights God's ability to bring order out of chaos, even through human failings.
