Our Family Trees: Oh, the Stories They Tell! Abraham’s family tree is connected by interesting stories. Isaac, Rebekah, Ishmael, Hagar and all the rest of Abraham’s family tree may look nothing like ours, but some of the stories are strangely similar because families are awash in stories, especially journey stories. We leave the homeplace, and we do it over and over again, then we long to return. Abraham is known as the patriarch of the Jewish people of today through Isaac, the son born to him and Sarah in their old age in fulfillment of the promise from God. Many Arabic people are descended from Abraham through is son Ishmael, born to Abraham and his wife's servant, Hagar. And that's only the beginning of another family tale! How are our lives similar, and what can we learn from Abraham's journeys and the antics of his family line? Join John Sewell in this entertaining, and sometimes shocking (and always amusing) discussion in the Upstairs Conference Room. Begins Sept. 18. |
