Abraham, one nomad’s amazing journey of faith by Charles
Swindoll offers more than just Abraham’s journey, it offers ways to stay in
tune to God’s timing.
I found this book to be very interesting even though I was
familiar with Abraham’s journey. Pastor
Swindoll adds life to the story. He
includes timelines and tells us the present day area that Abraham and Sarah
traveled. He shows us the bald truth
about Abraham’s journey, warts and all.
Abraham, like many of us, gets impatient; at times wanting to run ahead
of God. But one thing for certain, God
will do what He says and He will do it when He does. We can’t rush Him nor can we hide from
Him. Abraham found out that God even
hears our subtle untruths, Sarah was kinda Abraham’s sister but utmost, she was
his bride. Pastor Swindoll lays out the
ungodliness of Sodom and Gomorrah and their destruction, and why. We see the looking for a bride for Isaac and
the way Ishmael was blessed. We follow
from the time he was Abram to the end of Abraham’s life.
This is a wonderful book that would be interesting for any
reader, believer or nonbeliever.
I received this complimentary copy from Tyndale House
Publishers.
