The Father of the Faith
Sep 22, 2024 • Pastor Scott Lothery
Who told you about Jesus? Who shared the Gospel with you? The Bible describes those who led us to Christ in spiritual parenting terms of sorts, like a father or a mother. And even if some of us can’t identify a specific person, every Christian has the same father of the faith–Abraham. There were people of faith before him, but he is the exemplar of faith and was the first to have the kind of faith that God wants in us. Hebrews 11:8-16 has 3 lessons from the life of Abraham, and his wife Sarah. This ancient couple has much to teach us today.
