Summary

Abraham's life is a story that reflects all of our lives. Where are we on that story?

The story of Abraham is crucial to every single person in this world, as God promised that every nation on Earth would be blessed through Abraham. It is the dawn of God creating a people for himself, which continues until this day.

Life lessons

What I loved about this audiobook was that beyond just telling the story of Abraham, it related his story back to how we should be living our lives as a Christian. I have definitely taken a lot from this book - I am looking forward to the next one

Insightful perspective of this Bible Character

Have heard the story of Abraham many times. This book reveals an interesting perspective on who he truly was and why his life took the turns that they did. A good listen

Highly recommend this book

The book is a story that follows the life of Abraham. I love that Abrahams story is all in the one audio and how the story is told and compared to other stories in the Bible.

This is a great audiobook. I love how the author relates Abrahams experiences to todays issues for the current population. I cant wait to try his other audiobook on Lot.

The story of keeping faith...

This story reminds me to the verse Romans 4:20-21: " He never stopped believing God’s promise, for he was made strong in his faith to father a child. And because he was mighty in faith and convinced that God had all the power needed to fulfill his promises, Abraham glorified God!" Abraham's story is a story of faith and sacrifice. I like that Biblical stories like this always remind people that there is power greater than ourselves and that God is always at work, molding and shaping people for His purposes.

A beautiful biblical biography!

This book has been beautifully crafted into a biography of Abraham's life, who was one of the beloved prophets of God.
There is a lot of information from Abraham's birth to his death and everything in between.

There are chapters about Abraham's multiple wives and then God blessing him children in very old age...goes to show, you should never underestimate the power of the Creator.

Great religious and historical book

The great story of Abraham

Having not re-visited the story of Abraham in many years, this audiobook was something I appreciated listening to. I didn't realize how his story would complement our current lives. I've listened to several titles in The Biblical Character Series and have enjoyed it so far. The narrator does a great job of telling the wonderful story that James has written for us.

Another brilliant book in the series

Abraham is by far my favourite of the patriarchs covered in this series. I found this to be a great listen on my commute to and from work and I know I will be revisiting it again in the near future.

I learned so much!


I didn’t know too much about Abraham although I thought that I did thanks to all information and background I learned here.

I love the way this writer brings Abraham to life and weaves the current day into the narrative. I particularly liked the way all the chapters are broken down which means I can return to specific parts of Abrahams story. It’s a great book.

Good biography audiobook of Abraham's life

This audiobook focuses on one specific role in the Bible so we can be deeply familiar with this man. I like the chapters were crafted by events so we can get to know him story by story. The narrator has vivid descriptions. Can't wait to listen to the other book also written by this author talking about Abraham's son Isaac.

Interesting

The character of Abraham is certainly brought to life by the author ,I've listened to the other books in this series so i purchased this one. A real good historical story and one for lovers of faith. From a wife for isaac to stumbling in faith. This is a must listen for religious minded people
