Sacrificial obedience to God's unchanging commands leads to intimacy with Him, brings you further in your calling, and jars you out of ruts and complacency, according to writer, recording artist, worship leader, and television host Alicia Williamson. Integral to her book is a novel perspective on the life of Abraham - his mistakes, his sin, his faith, his growth - drawn from an examination of portions of Genesis and Hebrews. Using inductive study methods, Williamson parallels the spiritual ascension of Abraham with struggles in her own life and her readers' lives, pointing out moments of sacrificial obedience that allowed Abraham to move forward. Sacrificial obedience, Williamson concludes, will take you to the place where God provides. The place of sacrifice is the place that gives life.
