In Volume 4 Issue 4, I wanted to take a break to talk about Lot and how his story impacts our lives. He was a lot of trouble to Abraham and we will see in this issue why that is. Lot was Abraham’s nephew. His father passed away before Abraham…
In this issue, we see Abraham as the man God blesses when he is a man of war, a generous person, and an intercessor for his nephew Lot. Every Christian man can learn from his example and become more like him. In the last issue, I showed you how Abraham…
In this issue, we want to look at Abraham’s God-given prosperity and how it differs from our last issue where I described Abraham’s manufactured prosperity. This will be a completely different story than the last. Abraham and Lot experience such prosperity that they cannot handle it. They get too big…
You could consider this part one of two. We will see Abraham's manufactured prosperity in Egypt in this issue, and in the next issue, you will see God-given prosperity. In my last issue, I opened up our character study on Abraham by talking about why he is considered the father…

I mentioned in my last issue that I wanted to have a special issue for the rest of Genesis 9. In this issue, I will focus on the last part of Genesis 9 and walked through Noah’s drunkenness and Ham’s sin. There are several theories as to what happened here.…
We are continuing to track with Noah’s story, and we have finally reached this section about God’s covenant with Noah. We will be looking at the details of the covenant and looking into covenants and signs. Noah had just taken of the clean animals and built an altar to offer…
