In this next part of our look at the life of Abraham we see Abraham being commendable and not-so-commendable, while God remains faithful in every relationship. God cares about the results of the times when Abraham trusted God and also about the results of those times when he did not.

Sometimes, the prospect of what is about to happen is so awful that we really want God to intervene and stop the bad thing from happening. In our look at the story of Abraham in the Bible, today we arrive at an event like this in Abraham's life. What is he to do? Well, he tries to negotiate a better outcome with God. Will God listen to him? Join us to find out ... and to find out how we can talk to God about our fears.

Abraham's encounters with God ramp up to a new level in today's look into the Bible book of Genesis. God had spoken to him several times before but now Abraham meets him face-to-face. And God announces that the promises he's made to Abraham many years earlier are about to be fulfilled, never mind the apparent impossibility of that happening. Can Abraham and his wife, Sarah, trust God in such a situation when their brains shout out 'impossible'? Can we trust God when seemingly impossible situations face us?

In today's look into the Bible book of Genesis we see how unreasonable God is - he is super generous, even to those who doubt his generosity and power. In this excerpt from the life of Abraham, we find God being amazingly good and Abraham laughing in disbelief. But while Abraham's initial response may have been to doubt God, he did respond in obedience to what God asked of him. And that turn-around is a lesson for each one of us.

Today in our look at the story of Abraham, as recounted in the Bible book of Genesis, we encounter Abraham wih poor faith-sight, a slave with good faith-sight and God with 20-20 vision, even of people's hearts. We find that God sees the good and the bad, the suffering and the joy ... and asks us to respond as he responds even to those who refuse to look at him.

Jesus' followers in the first century were baptized outdoors in any available piece of water. Today we (and Andy) were fortunate enough to have water indoors for the purpose! But the reason and the requirements are just the same as they were for an Ethiopian government official as we'll hear about today. Is it time that you were baptized?

You've dropped in on a guest service ... so a special welcome if you are a guest. The service today is a little shorter than normal because the kids are staying in with the adults all the time. To keep the attention of as many as possible, the talk today is broken up into small chunks, too. But the subject is the key to Christianity, to life and to death., to the whole universe - it's Jesus Christ, the Greatest human who ever walked on earth.

Today's look at the life of Abraham takes us to one of the key decision points in anyone's life - whether to live on the basis of what seems like a good thing to do or whether to live by faith in God who promises far better than we can see or grasp. A powerful lesson that we all find difficult to learn.
