A few years after Isaac, the promised child, was born, Abraham faced a pivotal moment in his journey of faith. It was the most faith-filled, yet frightening moment any of us could imagine as God asked Abraham to lay his Isaac on the altar pf sacrifice.

Abram received a promise from God that he would be the father of many nations. However, Abram still didn't have a single child at an advanced age. The dream seemed impossible, but Abram trusted God to make the dream a reality.

A the beginning of the story of Abraham, God calls Abraham to leave everything behind and go to a land that He would show Abram (Abraham) later. This is a powerful example of how God still works in our lives today.
