Is Anything Too Hard for God? | Genesis 17 Circumcision, Isaac & Ishmael | Beers With Jesus
Description
Abraham is 99. For 13 years everyone thought Ishmael was the promise. Then God shows up and says that’s not what I mean.
In this episode of Beers With Jesus, Todd and Carrie walk through Genesis 17 and the start of Genesis 18 in The Message: name changes, circumcision, Abraham laughing first, Sarah laughing second, and a covenant cut into the body.
We talk about:
- Why Carrie was wary of this chapter
- The 13–14 year gap nobody talks about
- Abraham trying to keep Ishmael as Plan A
- Circumcision of the flesh vs circumcision of the heart
- Baptism, obedience, and getting it done the same day
- “Is anything too hard for God?”
- Isaac meaning laughter, and God owning the joke
Scripture: Genesis 17–18 (The Message)
