Count the Stars: Abraham and God's Three Promises | Catholic Bible Story for Kids
God called Abram to leave his home and follow him without seeing the whole road ahead. In this animated Catholic Bible story for children, Abraham and Sarah learn to trust God through a long journey and a long wait.
Three promises
God promises a land, descendants as numerous as the stars, and a blessing that will reach all the families of the earth. The story follows those promises from Canaan and the birth of Isaac to the Christian hope fulfilled in Jesus.
