Ep 1159 | Phil & Miss Kay’s Messy Start Mirrors a Couple You Already Know

Abraham’s story shows how God builds a nation through faith, not shortcuts. Al, Zach, John Luke, and Christian continue their study of Genesis, tracing the tension between Sarah’s quick fix with Hagar and God’s covenant promise, revealing how Abraham’s failures paved the way for his legendary faith. The guys connect Babel’s downfall, Sarah’s ambiguous laughter, and Abraham’s silence to the birth of Israel, highlighting why trust in God always outlasts our schemes.
