Genesis 14: Abram Rescues Lot | Prudence, Earnestness, Respect, Compassion


Listen Later

#biblestudy Abram helps the Kings of Sodom and Gomorrah save their city and rescue Lot when he is taken prisoner. We see Abram taking action because it is the right thing to do. We also see how we can peacefully set boundaries and co-exist with others without having to try to change their actions or beliefs.
