Verse: Gen. 22
Intro: Today we are going to discuss a popular story in the Bible but it’s a story with much more to it than what appears on the surface. So as we go through this chapter, we’ll dig deeper to peal away the surface to see what lies beneath. Every other time I’ve preached, I’ve been sneaking in a series that I would call, It’s all about Jesus. So I will show how this particular story reflects Jesus in every way.
