The life of Abraham overflowed with adventure, crisis, fear, faith, and most importantly, God. God's fingerprints left a deep impression upon Abraham's life, and in turn, Abraham left a lasting impression upon his world. The apostle Paul called Abraham the "father of all who believe" (Romans 4:11). Join Skip Heitzig in this study from Genesis as he takes us on a journey through the life of Abraham.

Genesis 20:1-21:8 Genesis 20:1-21:8 Skip Heitzig |
Info Message Summary As believers we are new creations in Christ, however, we still carry around our old nature; the battle between the spirit and the flesh is a struggle for all of us. As we consider the life of Abraham, we see him fall once again into a familiar sin. The consequences of his choices are damaging, hurting others and ruining his testimony before unbelievers. But as we'll see in our text, God is faithful, and causes all things to work together for good for those who love Him and who are called according to His purpose. |

Genesis 19 Genesis 19 Skip Heitzig |
Info Message Summary The topic of God's judgment makes some people squirm. Believing that God is loving, gracious, merciful and kind often comes easier than viewing Him as Judge. As we investigate the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah we'll come to terms with the necessity of His judgment. We'll also be reminded that God is in the business of redemption, and that He dealt with the sin of those who believe at the cross of Calvary. |

Genesis 16-17 Genesis 16-17 Skip Heitzig |
Info Message Summary It's a common problem; trusting our feelings rather than trusting the Lord. But feelings are misleading, and as we learn from Abram and Sarai, trying to help God fulfill His promises can be costly. Their spiritual detour from the will of God produced ramifications we are experiencing today. God is faithful however to fulfill His promises, His plan is perfect, and His will will be accomplished. |

Genesis 13-14 Genesis 13-14 Skip Heitzig |
Info Message Summary All of us make mistakes; we falter and fail in our relationships with the Lord and with others. Abram was no different, but by God's mercy he is the Father of them that believe. As we examine his life and the lives of those around him, we'll see that they encountered trials and temptations not so different from our own. Let's take a look at the differences between godly Abram and worldly Lot, and avoid the hazards of flirting with temptation. |
