Who are the people of God? What is the standard for faith? What is the covenant and why is it so important? How do we know the will of God? What does God expect of us? What is true sacrifice?
These are some of the questions we delve into in the series Abraham: Roots of Faith. The story of Abraham is not just an Old Testament tale that no longer has anything to do with us. In many ways, Abraham is the father of the faith, and we are tied to him, his story, and the promises made to him.
Far from a forgotten name of a bygone era, Abraham’s name is mentioned 71 times throughout the New Testament and his narrative is the very root of our faith and still holds tremendously practical truths for us today.
