We forgot to mention Sarah and Abraham’s surrogate, Hagar. From back before they had Isaac. And the bad blood between her and Sarah. It was quite a scene. This Sunday, the story comes to an unexpected conclusion.
We are delving into the Book of Genesis this Summer—Family Stories, the good, the bad, and the ugly. Join us, right here online.
You are invited!

For Jesus is Lord! Amen! Alleluia! (3x)
O, sing to our God. O, sing to our God.
“If You Will Trust in God to Guide You”
OneLicense #02540
If you will trust in God to guide you,
And hope in God through all your ways,
God will give strength, whate’er betide you,
And bear you through the evil days.
Who trusts in God’s unchanging love
Builds on the rock that will not move.
God will embrace your pain and weeping,
Your helpless anger and distress.
If you are in God’s care and keeping,
In sorrow will God love you less?
For Christ, who took for you a cross,
Will bring you safe through every loss.
Sing, pray, and keep God’s ways unswerving;
So do your own part faithfully,
And trust God’s word; though undeserving,
You’ll find God’s promise true to be.
God never will forsake in need
The soul that trusts in God indeed.
