The Bible repeatedly refers to our heavenly Father as "the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob," because these three fascinating men are historically regarded as the "founding fathers" of Israel. Directly descended, they were totally different personalities: Abraham, the pioneering man of faith; Isaac, the man of steady character; and Jacob, the deceiver whom God transformed into the father of the twelve tribes of Israel. As Peter Marshall makes these men come alive for us, we see ourselves in each of them, and learn from God's dealings with them how He works with us. 3 cassettes.
