We continue our series of study on how God interacts with His people throughout the Bible. In this episode we begin with the call of Abraham, the meaning of a name and how the call of God required Abraham to leave the land he knew. This is a story of the past, but is there a relevance to our story today? It would be easy to go about concluding a call in our own life if we already knew the outcome, but the reality is that when God calls, we do not yet know the outcome. Sometimes, as in the story of Abraham, the call requires us to leave what is familiar or comfortable. The wrestling with a call can include leaving our familiarity or worldly comfort. The point of a call from God is that it comes from God, and so to respond appropriately, it is vital we learn to trust God more than our own understanding. But before we place our faith in the call, we must know that the calling is from God. Listen in further as we discuss believing and responding to that which God has led us to act.
