Genesis 24:33-67
May 25, 2021
The romantic love story of Isaac and Rebekah continues. Abraham’s servant has been sent back to their home country to choose a wife for his son, Isaac. The way the servant finds God’s choice for a wife paints a beautiful parallel to how God sends His Spirit into the world today to seek out and capture the affection of God’s bride, the church.

Galatians Bible Companion
Get ready to fight the good fight against legalism in Galatians. When this letter was written, it defended the gospel of Christ from people who wanted to reduce it to rules.

Allow grace to revolutionize your own life through these seven lessons from Dr. J. Vernon McGee.
