Sunday Preview

This Sunday we continue our reading of chapter 24 inside of Genesis. Specifically, we will be looking at verses 29-51, where Abraham's bride-seeking servant meets the family of Rebekah, the girl he met previously at the well. What we will see in our text is a servant on mission for his master. He disregards all culture and protocol, and gets right into the purpose for his journey: the selection of a bride for Isaac. He then goes on to tell the story of how he got from Canaan to the city of Nahor, almost a 1,000 miles away. Yet, rather than tell a verbatim telling of history, he selects the subjects and timing of events to reveal to his hosts.

Not only does this passage show us how to live in relation to God, but also how couples are to interact with their In-Laws.

It will be a lot of fun!!
