About this episode

Paul Tripp examines Abraham's test to sacrifice Isaac and the elements of faith that shaped his response.

Faith is not irrational, but it will inevitably take us beyond the boundaries of what we can fully understand. Today, we continue our sermon series from the archives on Hebrews 11, the Bible’s great “Hall of Faith,” as Paul examines Abraham’s test to sacrifice Isaac and the four elements of faith that shaped his rest-filled response.
