Join us as Pastor Adam explores the dysfunctional family dynamics in Genesis 25–27—where Isaac, Rebekah, Jacob, and Esau scheme, manipulate, lie, and favor one child over the other—yet God sovereignly fulfills His promise that the older would serve the younger, culminating in Isaac's trembling act of faith when he finally submits to God's unthwartable will, reminding us that true faith isn't about controlling outcomes through our efforts but surrendering to God's faithful promises despite human failure and weakness

Abraham's willingness to sacrifice Isaac in Genesis 22 as the ultimate example of heroic faith from Hebrews 11, showing that true faith doesn't retreat when obedience gets costly or confusing—instead, it trusts God to provide, and points forward to Jesus as the Lamb God ultimately supplied so we could live.

God's faithfulness remains steadfast and reliable even when believers—like Abraham and Sarah—stumble, doubt, grow impatient, and fail in their efforts to rush or manipulate His promises, as illustrated through their long wait for a child, the misguided decision with Hagar, the enduring consequences, and their ultimate growth in trusting God's almighty power to fulfill His covenant in His perfect timing, enabling them to finish their lives well by faith despite never fully seeing the promise completed in their lifetime.
