TRUE Word, Faith for LIFE!
You've sat through Bible teaching that never changed a thing. Opinions dressed up as truth. Depth that needed a seminary degree to follow, or shallowness that asked nothing of you at all. This is not that. True Word, Faith for LIFE! walks the whole Bible in a year, in order, the way the story was actually told. I take the Hebrew and the Ancient Near Eastern world Scripture was born in and make it plain, so you see what the first hearers saw, then walk out knowing what to do with it today. No watering down. No insider language. Every episode lands on Yeshua, and every episode lands on your real life. If you're tired of confusion and ready to actually live your faith instead of just studying it, you belong here.

Day 7: Why Why Did GOD Choose Abraham?

Why did God choose Abraham, and what does that reveal about calling in your own life?

In Day 7 of Through the Bible in a Year, Dr. Shawn M. Greener explores why God’s choice of Abraham was not random favoritism, moral superiority, or personal greatness. This is where the covenant story begins to move toward the blessing of the nations.

If you misunderstand why Abraham was chosen, you’ll misunderstand biblical calling. And if you misunderstand calling, you’ll misread your own life.

This episode examines Genesis in context through a Hebraic worldview, with attention to covenant, purpose, obedience, and the larger redemptive story God is unfolding through Abraham and his seed.

What do you think made Abraham chosen?

THE BIBLE REBINDER I MENTIONED ON THE PODCAST

This is one of the three Bibles Melissa of MooseWorks Bible restored for me, beautifully rebound with a rugged new cover and exceptional attention to detail.

A Bible is more than a book. It is often a treasury of prayers, notes, promises, memories, and the record of a life spent seeking God.

If you have a treasured Bible that deserves to be preserved with excellence, I am honored to recommend Melissa of MooseWorks Bible.

Her work is marked by beautiful craftsmanship, thoughtful detail, and genuine kindness. She does not simply repair Bibles. She helps preserve the story they carry.
