When God Calls, Faith Walks : Genesis 12 : Pastor Raef Chenery : 10-26-25 by Park Community Church
This message launches a new series on the life of Abraham, where Pastor Kyle highlights Abraham as an example of faith and multiplication. In Genesis 12, we see a contrast between God's promises and human failure, showing that faith is an active response to God's Word, a willingness to go without knowing. Even in Abraham's moments of foolishness and doubt, God's faithfulness and grace shine through, and we see how God uses imperfect people to fulfill His global plan of blessing through one man, Jesus.

Lead Pastor Ashley Mathews preaches from the book of Genesis on the Nineteenth Sunday after Pentecost.
When everything seemed broken beyond repair, God began His rescue plan — not through armies or kings, but through one ordinary man named Abram. In this message, Dr. Scott Wilson unpacks Genesis 12 and shows how God called Abram out of the familiar, gave him promises he didn't deserve, and used him to bless the […]

We explores the story of Abram's journey from the promised land to Egypt during a severe famine, examining how God tests our faith not just in obedience but in our motivations. Pastor Chris teaches that while growth often comes through stress and desert seasons, fear can distort faith and lead to compromise. Abram's decision to leave the promised land for Egypt without God's direction, and his subsequent deception about Sarah being his sister, illustrates how fear breeds disobedience and costly consequences. However, the sermon emphasizes God's faithfulness even in our failures - He protected Sarah, restored what was lost, and remained true to His promises because He cannot deny Himself. The message concludes with practical application: replace "what if" fears with "even if" faith statements grounded in God's promises, and remember God's past faithfulness when facing uncertain futures.CLICK ME: Sermon OutlineINSTAGRAMTIKTOKYOUTUBEWEBSITE
She is My Sister | Genesis 20:1-18 | Genesis 12-50 by Hunter Bible Church
The story of Abram shows what it means to follow God when the path ahead is unknown. Abram left behind everything familiar simply because God called him. His life reminds us that blessing isn't God giving us everything we want; it's God giving us Himself. God is calling us to trust Him, worship Him, and walk with Him toward a better home.--Sermon by Pastor Nate Click--New to Heritage? Want to get more involved? Looking for a Group or Ministry Team?

The grim story of human wickedness in the early chapters of Genesis is suddenly and dramatically pierced by the Lord's words in Genesis 12.
On today's Text-Driven Tuesday, Jay and George are discussing Genesis 12:10-13:4 and the curious story of Abram and Sarai in Egypt. What is the meaning of such a text in the Bible? And how can we possibly apply it to our lives? Tune in as the guys explore the importance of this passage for our hope. Conformed to Christ aims to engage the mind, affect the heart, and call people to follow Christ. Additionally, our aim is to introduce and explain passages of Scripture and difficult theological doctrines in a down-to-earth and easy-to-grasp manner. Theology and the Bible should impact your life, and our goal is that we might play a small part in seeing that happen. Conformed to Christ is a ministry of Christ's Fellowship Church. https://cfclawton.org/ ***Be sure to subscribe on YouTube, iTunes, Google Podcasts, Spotify, Podbean, and Amazon Music Youtube: https://youtube.com/channel/UCgQBeT-Mj1CmngPdhZyWybQ iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/conformed-to-christ/id1503247486 Google Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkLnBvZGJlYW4uY29tL2NvbmZvcm1lZHRvY2hyaXN0L2ZlZWQueG1s Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5YruCZu4hla6Ll3rBu7UPY

October 7, 2025 The Covenant of Abraham Genesis 12:1-3, 15:1-6, 17-21 Pete Hatton Tuesday AM Men's Bible Study Series: The God of Promise—Covenant Theology from Genesis to Revelation
In this sermon, Pastor Chris explores the concept of faith through the story of Abram (Abraham) in Genesis 12:4-9. He identifies three pillars of faith that contributed to Abram's success: faith moves when God calls, faith builds altars before building dreams, and faith moves even when it doesn't make sense. The sermon emphasizes that God operates on the economy of faith, and without faith it is impossible to please Him. Using Abram's journey from Haran to Canaan, Pastor Chris illustrates how true faith requires immediate obedience, prioritizing God above personal ambitions, and continuing to trust God even when circumstances seem unfavorable. It concludes with a pattern observed in biblical figures: encounter with God, worship, desert experience, and finally blessing.CLICK ME: Sermon OutlineINSTAGRAMTIKTOKYOUTUBEWEBSITE
Faith is where it all begins. From the moment God called Abraham to leave everything familiar and step into the unknown, the life of faith was born. Today, the Spirit of the Lord is calling us back to the foundation of our walk with Him — a life built on complete trust and confidence in God. In this message, Pastor Andrew Eldridge takes us through the story of Abraham — the Father of Faith — to remind us that: • Faith begins with a call. God speaks first, and we respond. • Faith requires leaving in order to receive. Sometimes you must step out of what's comfortable to walk into what's promised. • Faith looks forward. God rarely shows us the whole picture, but He always gives us His word. • Faith obeys. True faith moves — it acts on what God has said, even when you don't have all the answers. • Faith grows. Abraham's journey wasn't perfect, but he kept walking — and so must we. • Faith points us to Christ. The same faith that was counted to Abraham as righteousness is now fulfilled in Jesus.

In this sermon, Pastor Nathan shows how God chose an obscure shepherd named Abram, called him and made a loving promise to bless him ALL BECAUSE of God's great love of partnering with people. God's preference is to partner with ordinary people like Abram to reveal His love and plan, and to bring about his purposes. God is only looking for people to say "yes" and believe in His goodness and promise.
Genesis 12:3 is a foundational scripture for non-Jews, Christians, to be a blessing to Israel, and for Israel to be a blessing to the families of the world. It's reciprocal, a formula, albeit parallel. But it's also sometimes overused, and done so in ways that are transactional, even manipulative. How can we understand the depth and obligations of this pivotal verse and what are our reciprocal obligations to one another as Jews with the world, and the world – and specifically Christians – to Israel and the Jewish people. Buckle up. You've never heard this one verse unpacked in this depth, especially now.PLEASE DONATE TO THE GENESIS 123 FOUNDATION ISRAEL EMERGENCY FUND AT WWW.GENESIS123.CO To join us making special events like this possible, please give generously at https://genesis123foundation.revv.co/soldierssocialwelfareGet information about how you can join FOOTSTEPS at https://genesis123.co/footsteps/For information about and how to register for Root & Branch, please go to www.RootandBranchIsrael.comConnect with the Genesis 123 Foundation at www.Genesis123.co and learn how you can host Shabbat in your community.FB - www.facebook.com/Genesis123Foundation Twitter - @Genesis123FIG - Genesis_123_FoundationFind out how you can be part of Run for Zion and bless Israel with every step at www.RunforZion.com.
Finding true greatness requires abandoning self-glorification and embracing God's way, as Abraham demonstrated when he left everything behind at age 75. While the world pursues greatness through self-effort like the Tower of Babel builders, Abraham found it through faith and obedience to God's call. This journey requires dying to our old identity and embracing who we are in Christ. True greatness comes not from achievements or possessions but from God's presence in our lives, living according to His Word, and participating in His mission to reach others.CLICK ME: Sermon OutlineINSTAGRAMTIKTOKYOUTUBEWEBSITE
In this sermon, Pastor Chris explores how the blessings promised to Abraham in Genesis 12 directly connect to believers today. The message traces how God's promises flow from Abraham to Israel, then to Christ, and finally to the church. Pastor Chris emphasizes that a blessed life isn't something earned but is a gift from God that comes through faith in Christ.The sermon outlines five key blessings that flow from Abraham to believers today: prosperity (material, relational, and spiritual provision), prominence (being made a royal priesthood and holy nation), purpose (being called to bless others and raise families in the Lord), protection (divine security that no one can take away), and presence/legacy (having God's Spirit within and leaving a lasting spiritual impact). The message concludes by challenging listeners to consider what legacy they will leave behind when they stand before Christ.CLICK ME: Sermon OutlineINSTAGRAMTIKTOKYOUTUBEWEBSITE
Today is Text-Driven Tuesday, and we are now turning our attention to the story of Abram beginning in Genesis 12.

God's call on our lives follows a pattern seen in Abram's story - a command requiring sacrifice paired with a divine blessing. Every Christian experiences three types of calling: salvation, holiness, and a specific assignment unique to their gifts and experiences. Christians typically fall into three categories regarding their response to God's specific calling: the 'I Don't Knows' who lack clarity, the 'I Don't Cares' who understand but resist, and the 'I Goes' who prioritize obedience to God. Following God's call costs everything - comfort, relationships, possessions, and reputation - but leads to fulfilling our divine purpose.CLICK ME: Sermon OutlineINSTAGRAMTIKTOKYOUTUBEWEBSITE

September 21, 2025 PM ~ Abram's Unbelief Throws Us Upon Christ, Our Only Hope in Life and Death ~ Rev. Carl Kalberkamp
“Bless” is a word often used and rarely defined. Therefore, we want to try to study some of God's blessings in Genesis. At the beginning, God blesses creatures with the capacity to flourish— to be fruitful, to multiply, and to abound. Every time we see life spreading and thriving in creation, it's a sign of God's blessing at work. Humans were given an additional blessing: responsibility over the earth. God invited humanity to be partners in extending blessing everywhere. Sometimes humans get it wrong and the blessing is distorted. In this series, we'll explore Genesis through the lens of blessing—what it means for us, and how we are called to live as participants in God's blessing to the world. This week we talk about how nothing can change the blessing.Support the show
God blesses us so that we may be a blessing to others, and to the nations! On today's podcast, Pastor Cameron encourages us to consider the real reason we are blessed.
As a part of our Beginnings series we explore Genesis and the story of Abram to find out what the Lord has to tell us about our relationship with fear.
Genesis 12 | Pastor Greg This teaching turns to Genesis 12. God's call of Abram, His promise to bless all nations through him, and the reminder that being “chosen” means being brought near to know God and make Him known. We see Abram's delayed obedience in Haran, his altars at Shechem and between Bethel (“house of God”) and Ai (“heap of ruins”)—a vivid picture of where believers live now, between what we've left and where we're headed. A famine prompts a fearful detour to Egypt, where Abram's deception about Sarai brings painful consequences, yet God preserves His promise and protects Sarai. The takeaway: in a tense cultural moment and in personal uncertainty, cling to God's Word, resist fear, walk in grace toward the lost, and trust the God who keeps His promises.
