"Isaac’s faith is singled out only for blessing his sons. What’s the big deal in that? Listen carefully because we will learn that it takes faith to finally recognize that God really is in control because trying to do things your way has failed."

They are powerful, supernatural beings. Never forget that it was people God died for, not angels."
