Episode notes

Abraham, though imperfect, is chosen by the Lord who sticks with him despite his mistakes. The process of repentance is emphasized over perfection, where coming unto Christ involves continuous repentance and looking to Him for forgiveness and healing. Making mistakes on the covenant path is expected, but the key is to keep moving forward, repenting daily, and having confidence in Christ's ability to make things right. Abraham's life exemplifies the concept of constantly repenting and looking to Christ, allowing him to lead a whole and complete life. The Lord's unwavering commitment to Abraham signifies His promise to always be there for those who seek Him.

How is a covenant not like a contract? Dr. Jennifer Lane instructs how covenants are familial arrangements about family and belonging. We discuss what it means in the ancient Near East to be a kinsman-redeemer, how covenants create familial bonds, and how the need for redemption applies to us today.
