Episode 161: God Might Be Speaking—How Can You Be Sure? (Genesis 12 Study)

In this episode of The Today Counts Show, we continue a collection of conversations on the book of Genesis. Jim talks with Gary Harpst and Winston Harris as they dive into the powerful story of Genesis 12. God calls Abram to step out of his comfort zone and embark on a journey that will change the course of history.

They explore the challenges Abram faced, the faith required to leave behind his familiar surroundings, and the promises God made that propelled him forward.

Tune in as we reflect on how God's call to Abram parallels the ways He calls us today to trust, take risks, and follow His plan, even when it’s uncertain or uncomfortable. Whether you're in a season of change or just seeking encouragement, this episode will inspire you to step out in faith and embrace the adventure that God has for you.

THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK

Now, I am working to unpack these… stay tuned.
