Publisher's Synopsis
You have my word on it. The cheque is in the mail. It's got a lifetime guarantee. I promise. We've all heard phrases like these, and sadly, most of us have found that promises can be easily made and quickly broken. In a world of identity theft, a multi-billion pound problem, we've learned that trust is often in short supply, and that people aren't always what they seem. And then we turn to the pages of Scripture, where we encounter a God who so frequently makes pledges and promises to us. Sometimes the promises that He makes are in the realm of the impossible. Is He to be trusted? What connection is there between God's promises and the life of faith? And do we sometimes take scripture out of context, insisting that promises that God made for other people, other nations, and other generations actually belong to us? Join Jeff as we consider the covenant-making (and covenant-keeping) God.
