Idolatry of the Dream — Sunday Sermon, October 6, 2024


Listen Later

Sunday Sermon by Kevin Jensen — God loves to grant the dreams of his children. Yet for many years, he declined to grant Abraham and Sarah's dream: the dream of having a son of their own. At long last, God granted that dream, and their son Isaac was conceived miraculously. Some years later, though, God asked Abraham to give his dream—his son—back to God by offering him as a sacrifice. By this test, God watched to see whether Abraham would let his son, his dream, become an idol between himself and God. We too may be tempted to place even our most worthy dreams ahead of God in our lives, when our lives and our dreams themselves will be most blessed if we submit them to God. Text: selections from Genesis 12-22
