About this listen

Journey back in time to the dusty plains of Canaan and meet Sarah, a woman whose heart ached with a single, unfulfilled wish: to have a child. She and her beloved husband, Abraham, were well past the age of cradles and lullabies. They had listened to God’s incredible promise of a family as numerous as the stars, but decades had passed, and their tent remained quiet, filled only with waiting and the whispers of old age.

So when three mysterious visitors arrive with a message that she will have a son within a year, Sarah, hiding behind the tent flap, does the only thing that makes sense to her ninety-year-old heart—she laughs. It isn't a laugh of joy, but a quiet, bitter giggle of disbelief born from years of disappointment.

But God hears her. And in an act of breathtaking grace and humor, He decides to make her laughter the very centerpiece of His miracle. This is the story of how that single, doubtful giggle was transformed into the joyful cry of a newborn baby named Isaac, a name that means "He Laughs." Join Sarah on an unforgettable journey from barrenness to unbelievable joy. Experience the long years of waiting, feel the shock of the heavenly message, and celebrate the day her arms were finally filled with the promised child. The Girl Who Laughed at a Promise is a timeless tale that tenderly explores doubt, faithfulness, and the surprising ways God keeps His word, reminding us all that He can turn our quietest doubts into our most resounding joys.
