Abram Counts the Stars

Read Genesis 18:1-15 and Genesis 21:1-7 and Genesis 22:17&18

Some questions to wonder about together:

Where is the ‘light’ in this story?
Why do you think God used the picture of stars in the sky to illustrate his promise to Abram?
Can you think of another time when a star was important in the Bible?
Have you ever been outside on a starry night? What did it feel like? What did you see?
