Episode Synopsis

After receiving three bold promises from God—babies, blessing, and land—Abram continues his journey, but not without a few missteps. In Genesis 13, he puts the promise of land at risk, allowing Lot to choose first, a move that seems generous but could cost him dearly. This chapter reminds us that wisdom often comes from seeking God before making decisions, not after.Then, in Genesis 14, Abram rises to the occasion, waging a battle to rescue Lot. Fresh off the victory, he encounters the mysterious Melchizedek, a priest-king who offers both bread and blessing. Here, Abram finally demonstrates real trust, refusing the spoils of war and relying on God’s provision instead of human wealth.Join us as we explore how risky choices, divine encounters, and unexpected wisdom shape Abram’s faith—and how they can shape ours too.
