Why would God launch his rescue of the whole world through an old, childless man whose family worshiped other gods, a man who was not even looking for him? In week two of The Story, Pastor Justin Sturgeon of First Christian Church of The Dalles opens the life of Abraham and the promise that started a nation. It is a story of grace no one earned, a wait that stretched twenty-five years, and a God who binds himself to a promise he intends to keep alone. It builds to a father, a son, and a mountain, where a knife is raised and everything hangs on whether God will provide. What happens there still speaks to anyone who has been asked to trust God before they can see how the story ends. If you have ever wondered whether God can use ordinary, flawed people, or whether his promises really hold, this message is for you. Come and see how the God who called Abraham is still calling people today. If this message encouraged you, please like, subscribe, and share.
