Genesis 19-24
This week on Encounter with God Together, Gail welcomes back Whitney Kuniholm, President Emeritus of Scripture Union-USA, as we move into Genesis 19 to 23 in our daily reading guide. Whitney opens with a warning. These chapters hold some of the most difficult material in all of Genesis, and rather than skip past it, he invites us to face into it. He offers three questions to carry through the week: what we are meant to do with the unsavory parts of Scripture, what a hundred years of Abraham’s life teaches us about the slow work of spiritual formation, and whether Abraham finished well. Along the way there is a bit of Bible trivia, a word from Flannery O’Connor on why the darkness makes the light easier to see, and a closing phrase from the baptismal covenant that Whitney suggests we hold onto all week long.
