The Brentwood church is a group of Christians who are striving together to serve Jesus Christ. We believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God, providing us with everything we need to know about life in God’s kingdom. The Christians at Brentwood regularly study together, pray together, and encourage one another in our walk with the Lord. We would be delighted to have you join us in these endeavors!
A Moment with the Bible
Genesis 12:10-20
Our text tells the intriguing story and Abraham and Sarah going into Egypt to escape a famine in the land of Canaan. Sarah was so beautiful that Abraham feared that the Egyptians would kill him in order to take her. So he asks Sarah to hide the fact that they were married and only say that they are brother and sister. Of course, the result of this decision was disastrous. While Pharaoh rewarded Abraham handsomely, Pharaoh also took Sarah to be his wife. There are some interesting and compelling lessons from this incident.
