What does place say about us? Who do we become because of it? We shape our spaces and our spaces shape us. God covers our shortcomings with his unconditional covenant of love.

Abraham gets involved in a tribal war and becomes a hero to the people. Lot becomes enslaved to his new life. God continues to be faithful.

God's call on our lives rarely comes at the moment of our choosing. Abraham finds himself deep in God's work and the costs on his life are great. We find God's divine promises yield providential preservation.

With all the pressure around us in life, it's good to be reminded that it's ok to use the turnout. In this part of Abram's story we see him step aside from the pursuit (and tension) of building wealth with Lot. God reaffirms his promise.

Abraham comes out of Egypt and wanders around between the house of God and a place of ruin looking for a place to restart. We'll learn that when we get lost it can help to go back to the last time the path was clear.

Famine takes Father Abraham to Egypt and with it a turn to the dark side. We process our place and significance of returning to the altar.

A conversation between God and Abraham gives us some grown-up insight into the parenting value of doing because you're told, not because you'll get. We begin the story from Hebrew 11:8.

Sometimes the thing we need to see most was there the whole time. In this story out of Kings, God makes known his strength, and his compassion, to those who are both on Israel's side and not.

No one likes to be left alone, especially when we don't understand why. In this passage, out of John, Jesus comforts his disciples and introduces a new voice in their lives.

“The greatness of God rouses fear within us, but His goodness encourages us not to be afraid of Him. To fear and not be afraid – that is the paradox of faith.” – A.W. Tozer
