Trusting God When Nothing Makes Sense

Our church will sent off 137 Kids, 19 Counselors, and 3 Staff members, up to Hume Lake for a life-changing summer camp experience, inviting them all to trust God with their lives. This is what we will talk about in the sermon on the Beach and in The Catalina Room. As kids head up to Hume Lake, we will wrap up our series on the intriguing life of Abraham, focusing on the most difficult test in his life—"sacrifice your son, your only son, the one you love.” How do we trust God when nothing makes sense, about ourselves, our dreams, or God himself? The confusing story is found in Genesis 22:1-18; might I suggest you read it as a story, letting it prod you to ask questions, some of which will not yield answers. The story points to a greater hope.
