Abraham, Sarah, and the Promise

[Genesis 12-25] Abraham's spiritual legacy is nothing short of profound - yet his story also includes some little-appreciated humor. Delve into the biblical text and consider how Israel's patriarch is portrayed in Genesis 12-25. How is the theme of promises reflected in his relationships with Sarah, Isaac, and God? Get to know Abraham as a much more relatable and well-rounded figure.

[Genesis 25-50] According to Professor Koester, the biblical stories of Jacob and Joseph are rooted in perennial themes of familial conflict and reconciliation.
