307. Genesis 18 Part 1: Abraham Fails Again, and Sarah Laughs at God

In this episode of The Bible Show, Sam and Will unpack Genesis 18, where God Himself shows up—yes, physically—to visit Abraham. As Abraham scrambles to prepare an extravagant feast, we discover that this divine encounter isn’t just about hospitality… it’s about a promise that’s finally about to be fulfilled.

With Sarah listening behind the tent flap, God declares that she will have a son within a year. Her response? Laughter—tinged with disbelief, pain, and longing. But instead of rebuke, God gently draws near, affirming that nothing is too hard for the Lord.

This episode explores the deep emotional tension of waiting on God’s promises, the burden of barrenness, and the beauty of a God who meets us in our doubt. Sam and Will bring cultural, historical, and theological depth to this powerful moment—highlighting how God's grace pursues even the most broken and overlooked hearts.
