This week’s lesson, “God allows us to choose” is exciting, and action packed. Based on Genesis 12:1-14:24, it focuses on God’s call of Abram, his worship of the LORD, and his nephew Lot’s choices. But you have a choice to present some of the other great elements from the background passage—Abram’s decision to sojourn in Egypt, the LORD’s promise and command to Abram in 13:14-18, Abram’s decision to rescue Lot, or Melchizedek’s blessing of Abram.
Ask members to identify elements in life where they have a choice. Also, ask them to identify life elements where they have no choice. Ask them if people have a choice to follow God or not.
By the way, we had 123 people download the PowerPoint slides posted for last week’s lesson. I hope you’ll take a second and answer the poll question on the right. Please click one of the choices. Appreciate it!

As I have been preparing by reading the background passages, I have noticed that everywhere Abram stopped (except for Egypt) he built an alter. I realize alters were for worshipping God, however, I was wondering if there is other significance to the building of an alter. Also, is there a modern equivalent in the Christian life?
