🌱 New Bible Study is Live - Trust When God’s Direction Is Partial
A new Bible study on Genesis 12:1–4 is now live in OpenBibleLab. This one slows us down at a familiar passage and notices something easy to overlook. God gives a call before he gives a map.
In the study, we linger with how the passage is shaped. Abram is told to go, but the destination remains unnamed. The promises are expansive and confident, yet the direction is partial. What’s striking is not just that Abram obeys, but what kind of obedience the text presents. It’s movement rooted in trust, not understanding. Even Hebrews later notices this, that Abram went out not knowing where he was going.
That tension stays unresolved in the text, and it seems intentional. The story moves forward without explaining how the future will unfold. Paying attention to that choice opens up the passage in a quieter, deeper way.
A couple questions to sit with as you read or reread the passage:
👀 What details stand out to you about what God says, and what God does not say?
🧭 Where do you notice movement without clarity in these verses?
🤔 What feels most open or unanswered by the end of verse 4?
The full study is available now in the Premium course area. Whether you’ve read it yet or not, join the conversation here. Share one detail you noticed, or one question that stayed with you.
