In Genesis chapter 22, God asks Abraham to sacrifice his son, Issac. Issac was the miracle child; the one God provided to Sarah when she was ninety years old! Why did God ask Abraham to sacrifice Issac? Today, we say things like “I am 100% devoted to God”, but what about in situations like this? What if God asks us to sacrifice something we love; something He provided us with? These aren’t easy questions and the answers certainly aren’t easy to swallow.

The Teacher and the Preacher is a weekly radio program--hosted by Dave McGarrah, Senior Pastor at Deer Flat Church in Caldwell, Idaho, and Aaron Lipkin from Israel--that airs each Sunday at 10:30 am and 7:30 pm here 94.5 FM and 790 AM on KSPD Boise's Solid Talk.
They are a unique phenomenon on the airwaves – a Christian and a Jew in an ongoing dialogue – celebrating the many commonalities but never shying away from the differences. They offer their listeners insights into each other’s faiths that don’t come up much elsewhere, that can only come through sincere conversation. The weekly discussion is more than a program about a topic; it’s a demonstration of how God can bring two people together from 9,000 miles away to bridge the differences, learn from each other, and strengthen their own faiths.
