Who was Abraham in the Bible?

Abraham towers over many of the other personalities in Scripture. Even today, as the father of many nations, he is revered in the world over as the patriarch of Islam, Judaism, and Christianity. Abraham's model of trust in God's promises has no equal. His uncompromising obedience to his Lord's will is without parallel. Yet it would be easy for us to make of Abraham more than he actually was, for he was a human—flesh and blood—like us. His remarkable journey was actually the work of God's gracious hand, which shaped and tested Abraham's faith to make him worthy of the important role God had chosen to give him.

If you're wondering who Abraham was, or want to know how Abraham's faith journey impacts your own, this book is for you!
