Be Obedient (Genesis 12-25): Learning the Secret of Living by Faith by Warren W. Wiersbe

Be Obedient (Genesis 12-25): Learning the Secret of Living by Faith invites readers to journey through the middle portion of Genesis alongside Abraham and Sarah, exploring what it truly means to obey God by faith. Wiersbe examines key episodes: the call of Abraham, God’s promises, the tests he faced, the covenant, moments of failure, and God’s faithfulness through it all.

Through clear exposition, Wiersbe shows that faith is not passive belief but an active trust: acting even when circumstances are uncertain, obeying even when feelings are lacking, and staying true even in the face of failure. In this edition, he integrates fresh study questions and a new introduction by Ken Baugh, designed to deepen understanding and foster application.

Readers will come away with practical insight into how to:

• Walk by faith when God’s promises seem impossible.
• Respond obediently even when the cost is high.
• Recognize that obedience often requires trust beyond what we see.
• See failures not as final but as part of the journey with God.

This volume is ideal for those who want more than head knowledge; it’s for those wanting a faith that transforms how they live, choose, obey, and hope. Whether used in group study, sermon prep, or silent meditation, Be Obedient offers both encouragement and challenge for the believer’s walk.
