Abraham: Father of the Faithful
A character study — 12 lessons · Old Testament
God called one man to leave his country, his kindred, and his father's house, and through him promised to bless all the families of the earth. This twelve-lesson study follows Abraham from that first call to the supreme test on Mount Moriah, watching a faith that falters, grows, and is finally made complete by obedience — a faith credited to him as righteousness and fulfilled at last in Christ. Each lesson stands alone, while the whole study works well for a one-quarter adult Bible class.
Teachers: Each lesson has a matching Leader's Guide with discussion notes, suggested answers, and supplementary cross-references.
