This week we begin our study of the patriarch Abraham, and that word "patriarch" is an interesting one. In Gen 17:5 the Lord changes Abraham's name from Abram meaning "God is the exalted father" to Abraham meaning "father of multitudes". The change is subtle but significant: Abraham is expected and blessed to experience what it means to care for and lead a family. And what do parents do? They bless, or as it says in D&C 41:1, they "delight to bless" their children. In this episode we look at the blessings our God gives to us and through us for our own benefit and the benefit of those we love.
