Episode Synopsis
For many people Summer is the time for romance. So perhaps a romantic story in the right zone. This story may feel a bit off to those of who in the West but in many culture arranged marriages have worked for centuries.
Abraham and Sarah are reaching the end of their lives and Abraham calls his faithful servant and instructs him to go back to the land of his ancestors in search of a wife for his son Isaac. The story unfolds in such a way to show that God works in our hearts and minds to lead us to the right people at the right time in order to fulfil his purposes. Eliezer suceeds in finding Isaac a bride but the family difficulties continue.
