It was moving to hear about the spiritual link between Abraham and Paul as men of faith who dared to respond to God’s call to an unknown future. I also enjoyed hearing the stories of Abraham’s childhood. As pointed out, the telling of extra non-canonical stories about key biblical figures, is not part of Western/Protestant Christian tradition, but a richness in Judaism and Islam.
