Waiting on God When You’re Old as Hell | Genesis 16 Hagar & Ishmael | Beers With Jesus
Abram and Sarai are 86. God promised a family. Nothing is happening. So Sarai comes up with a plan. In this episode of Beers With Jesus, Todd and Carrie walk through Genesis 16 in The Message: Hagar, Ishmael, jealousy in the household, and what happens when you try to force a promise God already made.We talk about: Why “they’re old as hell” is the whole setup Sarai’s idea, Abram going along, and “it’s all your fault” Whether this speeds God’s plan up, slows it down, or just makes life more chaotic Polygamy in Genesis, jealousy that runs both ways, and why the workaround never stays in its box Hagar in the desert: “You’re the God who sees me” Waiting on God when the promise is taking decades Scripture: Genesis 16 (The Message) Next week: Genesis 17 (the chapter Carrie prepped by accident) Books & merch: toddsworld.net Beers With Jesus every week + The Wildly Opinionated News Hour every other weekWhat promise have you tried to “help along”?
