Genesis 18 - Friendship with God

Genesis 18 - Friendship with God

Being known by God is never a private comfort. It's an invitation into His purposes, a charge to shape our households after His character, and a call to trust His justice even when we don't yet see the whole picture.

Genesis 18 - Is Anything Too Hard for the Lord?

After years of promise but no child, Sarah finds the promise of God too good to be true, even laughable. But what seems impossible is only a reminder that nothing is too hard for the Lord.

Genesis 15 - Grace Powered Hospitality

In Genesis 18, Abraham has an encounter with the Lord that leads to incredible grace driven hospitality. A reminder that we too are changed by the grace of God to bring generous hospitality to others.

Genesis 17 - God’s Promises are Greater than Our Plan

In Genesis 17:15–27, God asks Abraham to trust a promise that makes absolutely no sense. Abraham is nearly one hundred years old, Sarah is ninety, and God says they are going to have a son. Abraham laughs. He offers God an alternative plan through Ishmael because it seems more realistic and manageable. Yet God reminds Abraham that His promises are not dependent on human ability but on divine faithfulness. The same struggle exists in all of us. When God’s timing is slow, His commands are difficult, or His plans don’t align with our expectations, we’re tempted to trust our own understanding rather than His Word. But this passage points us to the greater promised Son, Jesus Christ, who perfectly trusted the Father and fulfilled God’s covenant promises for us. Because God has proven His faithfulness through the cross and the empty tomb, we can trust Him even when we don’t understand what He’s doing. Faith isn’t having all the answers—it’s believing that the God who keeps His promises knows exactly what He’s doing and following Him one faithful step at a time.

Genesis 17 - He is Our God

God makes a covenant with Abraham to be his God. This is an incredible and eternal truth for us today.
