What does it look like to truly meet with God and experience real change in your life?

In this message from Pastor John Lindell, we see how Jacob’s encounter with God shows us the power of personal surrender, persistent faith, and allowing God to transform us from the inside out. Our prayer is that as you step into a new year, you would choose to meet with God, hold onto Him in faith, and experience the life-changing blessing that comes through transformation.
