About this listen
Sometimes in the Bible you get these stories of supposedly good and holy people handpicked by God who just make the worst decisions.
There was this elderly couple, you see, and one day they decided to explore surrogacy with a dash of sexual exploitation to see if that was the answer to their problems. The story is quite problematic, especially when seen through the modern lens.
But we learn a bit about God, and get another glimpse of his loving character in how he dealt with what was at the time considered to be the lowest of the low: a runaway female slave, who had been abused by those that should have cared for her.
How God deals with Hagar is how he deals with us too.
The essential oil of the week is Peppermint.
