    A Wife For Isaac (Genesis 24)

    Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Jul 3, 2024
     | 344 views

    How did it happen that the Lord provided a distant believing wife for Isaac, rather than a neighboring pagan wife? Let's look at Genesis 24.

    How would we find a marriage partner? Would we choose a pagan or unbeliever who is close by or seek a fellow believer even if they come from far away? Would we follow a believing parent’s advice or ignore their wisdom and make our own choice? Do we trust that God can also provide for us? Let’s ...read more

    Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Jul 8, 2024
     | 351 views

    Were the patriarchs and matriarchs of our common faith filled with great imperfections and a great faith? Are we in the Church still so very imperfect, but also filled with a great faith? Let's look at Genesis 29.

    Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Jul 9, 2024
     | 362 views

    Can God show mercy upon very imperfect servants? Does Jacob's life reveal that polygamy simply does not work? Was God's design from the beginning of one man and one woman simply the best? Let's look at Genesis 30.

    Life is full of injustices. How do we escape a cheat? Let's look at Genesis 31.

    Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Jul 12, 2024
     | 662 views

    Do we wrestle with God in prayer or do we give up? Let's look at Genesis 32.
