Send us a text In this week's episode we discuss the meet cute and marriage arrangement of Abraham's Son Isaac and Rebecca. We ended last time with Abraham’s reconciliation with God. Yahweh provided a lamb for sacrifice and established an atonement for the broken relationship. But today we pick up almost 15 years later. Isaac is a young man now, Sarah has died, and Abraham is well advanced in years. And Abraham is finding away for his son to get married. As I share this story, we will talk about oaths, how much water Camels can really drink, and of course Ancient Near Eastern Marriage customs. Support the show…

Send us a text This is a story that most people who grew up in and around church have heard many times. But it has always fascinated me, because it is so shocking that God would make Abraham wait 25 years for this promised son, and then a few years later ask him to give him up? It doesn’t make sense. Why would God do that? We will discuss these questions and more as we discover that even though God asked for Abraham’s son, Abraham was faithful and God provided a replacement sacrifice. Yahweh provided a Ram! Support the show…

We discuss how this story falls between the two covenant chapters, and how this story affects the covenant that God made with Abram. In this story we see how Abram's decision to listen to Sarai over God would change the world forever. Abram's children become two great nations who lived at war with one another in Canaan. And even today in 2021, thousands of years later, these two nations are still at odds with one another. And it all started int this week's story, of Abram and Hagar. Support the show…

Send us a text Today we are talking about covenants. Specifically, the Abrahamic Covenant that God establishes with Abram. A covenant is like a contract between two parties. Today, 2021 a contract is made by signing an agreement and possibly a handshake. But back in Abram’s time covenants were made by sacrificing an animal. This was a sacred act and used only for really important matters, because something had to die for this contract to be sealed. Today we are going to find out what that important matter was for Abram.
