White sticks, speckled sheep, and a pile of rocks

Kevin Long Season 5 Episode 8

Who was Jacob? What happens when two master tricksters face off? Are relationships more important than being right? Where are you unwilling to compromise?

"White sticks, speckled sheep, and a pile of rocks" is a reflection based on Genesis 30:25-43.
