Anyone who has ever been in marketing, sales, or advertising knows that a celebrity endorsement can incredibly change the success of a product or service. Depending upon the popularity and believability of the celebrity, the impact can be profound.
The Greatest Family Endorsement of All Time
This morning as we open to Genesis 18, we are opening to what may be the greatest celebrity endorsement of parenting ever made in history. God Himself, the most trusted, expert source on any topic in the Universe tells us that He found in Abraham a quality He was looking for in parenting.
Please look with me at Genesis 18:16-19. Here, on the doorstep of disaster, when God wipes out an entire region filled with people because of their unrepentant immorality, God also endorses Abraham's parenting skills.
Genesis 18:16-21 Then the men rose from there and looked toward Sodom, and Abraham went with them to send them on the way. 17 And the LORD said, "Shall I hide from Abraham what I am doing, 18 since Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him? 19 For I have known him, in order that he may command his children and his household after him, that they keep the way of the LORD, to do righteousness and justice, that the LORD may bring to Abraham what He has spoken to him."
