Living in the Gap Between Promise and Reality

This book helps Christians to see that Abraham is an important figure on the road that leads to the Lord Jesus Christ. The author pulls the reader into the dramatic unfolding of the story of Abraham as a significant stage in the larger story of salvation. Written for laypersons, study groups, and pastors, this lively survey of Abraham's faith (and failures) shows us how the Old Testament patriarch foreshadows the perfect saving work of Christ.
