Back to EpisodesTuesday, October 21st | Why God Chose Abraham
Description
When God called Abraham out of Ur, He wasn’t abandoning the rest of the world—He was launching a plan to reach it. In this episode, Dr. Abidan Shah unpacks how God’s election of Abraham was never about favoritism but about function. Israel was chosen for service—to be the vessel through which God would bless every nation on earth.
We’ll explore:
- Why God’s call to Abraham in Genesis 12 was both exclusive and inclusive.
- How Israel’s election fits into God’s ongoing care for all peoples.
- How Paul explains this tension in Romans 9–11: God chooses one to reach many.
- What this means for Christians today—chosen not for status, but for service.
This conversation reminds us that God’s heart has always been global, and His plan of redemption has always included you.
Dr. Shah writes a personal letter every week — reflections on Scripture, faith, and living it out with clarity and purpose.
