Do you struggle to know and follow God's call for you in the world? Genesis tells us that even the giants of faith-Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Joseph-struggled to obey their Creator. But Genesis, the first book of the Old Testament, also reveals the amazing truth that the God who called a world and a nation into being also calls each of us to serve him.
