About this Episode

In this episode of The Bible Show, Sam and Will explore the dramatic and deeply human story of Genesis 16. As Abraham and Sarah struggle with waiting on God's promise, they take matters into their own hands—leading to tension, heartbreak, and divine intervention.

What happens when we try to force God's timing? How does Hagar, an Egyptian servant, become the first person in Scripture to encounter "the angel of the Lord"? And what does it mean that God not only hears her but sees her?

Join us as we unpack the cultural context, the lasting consequences of this decision, and the incredible hope that comes from a God who pursues the broken and outcast.
