Listen "Seed, Part 4 - "Down in Egypt""
Episode Synopsis
In Genesis 12:10-20, Abraham faces a severe famine and chooses to seek refuge in Egypt rather than trust God's promises. Fearing for his life, he deceives Pharaoh by claiming Sarah is his sister, leading to her being taken into Pharaoh's household. When God afflicts Pharaoh with diseases, the truth emerges, and Abraham is sent away with wealth despite his deception. This story reveals Abraham's failures of doubt, deception, and bringing harm instead of blessing, yet also demonstrates God's unfailing reliability, redirection, and mercy. Like Abraham, we often trust in our own 'Egypts' rather than God, but He remains faithful to His promises despite our shortcomings.
