"Aspects of Abraham" is a video series recorded for Living Stones - Church on the internet.
Each video is approximately 30 - 35 mins long and follows Abraham's path from the City of Ur to Canaan.
There are historical and modern-day lessons that we can learn - both encouraging and challenging.
Genesis speaks of the "cultivation" of the land (Mesopotamia). "Then the LORD God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to cultivate it and tend it" (Gen 2:15). Also the LORD told Adam, "By the sweat of your brow you will eat your bread" (Gen 3:19). Revealing the cultivation of wheat that the Neolithic Agricultural Revolution was noted for.
Generations later Yahweh's friend, Abraham, a descendent of Adam's line through to Christ, is told to leave the City of Ur. The focus of the Bible then leaves Mesopotamia and moves to Canaan.
The videos are being recorded live in the facebook group Living Stones and then uploaded onto YouTube. You can view them here:
