About this listen

Abram was given a new name, Abraham, because he found a new identity as a father of many nations (peoples). Dr. Zeile's meditation on this promise shows how it is fulfilled in our day (3 billion people today look to him as a Father), and that through the baptism commanded by Christ we, too, are given a new identity as children of God, heirs of the Promise first given to Abraham. Psalm 103 accompanies this message, as well as the celebration of Holy Communion, and the classic Lutheran hymn, "Baptized into Your Name Most Holy."
