Meeting God in Everyday Life: Out of Past toward Coming Futures
from Manhattan Church of Christ Podcast · host Jason Isbell
Scripture Reading: Genesis 12:1-9 God calls Abram to leave his settled life and journey to a land that can't be known. Before Abram does anything, God promises new life, new flourishing, and new blessing for all of humanity. The promise is a call to trust and build a life based on a deeper reality of God as the creator of life. The journey of trust begins as Abram departs, losing his life for the good news of the promise, and Yahweh becomes the center and giver of everything. The promise to give the earth to Abram's seed opens the whole earth to the journey of faith. All of Abram's offspring struggle to live on the land dominated by limited vision without the promise, but God's grace will fulfill his promise for the world.
