Today we will conclude this six-part series on The Life of Abraham, by covering the final 38 years of his life following the death of his wife Sarah. There are still a number of lessons we can learn from those years. We will then conclude this series of sermons by looking at the legacy he left for all of us to follow and how that can help us in our journey of learning to live by faith as Abraham did.
