Rooted in Abraham: The Foundation of Our Faith

In this episode of The Legacy Bible Podcast, we explore how understanding God’s dealings with Abraham unlocks the entire message of the Bible. Pastor Rains unfolds the connection between Abraham’s obedience and God’s redemptive plan through Christ — a faith that looks beyond works, beyond the law, and rests fully on God’s promises. Discover how Abraham’s journey of belief models the way of faith for every believer and how the covenant blessings extend even to us through Jesus Christ.
