    The God Of Hagar And Ishmael

    Contributed by Arlyn Sunshine Drew on Feb 24, 2022
     | 3,518 views

    The banishment of Ishmael is extremely troubling: it carries the sting of racism, bullying, and some might even say- a hate crime, life-threatening expulsion of a minor based on prejudice. But God turned this tragedy into a victorious coming-of-age drama.

    Let's read it together, Genesis 21:8-21 (ASV) "8 And the child grew and was weaned: and Abraham made a great feast the same day that Isaac was weaned. 9 And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, which she had born unto Abraham, mocking.10 Wherefore she said unto Abraham, Drive out ...read more

    This sermon addresses the question "How do we get into the family of God?"

    I don’t know about you but as the list of names were read today from Matthew, I was a little bored. I noticed some of you were too. It reminds me of attending several middle school, high school and college graduations this past June. Hearing the list of names being read off was boring because I ...read more

    Approaching The Altar

    based on 94 ratings
     | 9,040 views

    Giving our all for God even when it seems unrealistic or possible.

    In our text for today Abraham is called by God to sacrifice his son Isaac on the altar that they would build on the mountain. Shocking really when you think about it at all! But, Abraham’s faith was such that he did not question God’s wisdom, but rather followed in obedience regardell of how ...read more

    A father’s day sermon.

    Happy Father’s Day, dads! Did you all get pounced on in bed this morning? My boys each made me a card (that was very special); but Bethwyn went all out! She gave me my own rock. She painted it green, and she drew a smiley face on it, and gave it to me with a card. It couldn’t be more precious to ...read more

    God Heard The Voice Of The Lad

    Contributed by Rodney Johnson Sr., on Nov 9, 2002
    based on 88 ratings
     | 6,581 views

    In a world where youth are crying everyday because of parental abandonment and life’s pressures, it is good to know that God hears the voice of the lad.

    Introduction: In our text, Abraham is torn between two families. He loved both Ishmael and Isaac. But as often is the case, he had to choose. Thus, he choose Sarah and Isaac. Reluctantly he sent Hager and Ishmael away. In great pain and depression, Hager ended up in the wilderness of Beersheba with ...read more

    "Take Now"

    based on 38 ratings
     | 3,356 views

    Hesitation often proves disastrous, but Abraham shows us how to "take now" in responding with obedience to God.

    How many times a day do you receive the response, “Just a minute”? Perhaps you’ve asked your children to wash up and come to the dinner table or asked your spouse to lend you a hand or asked your mom or dad to read you a book or help with your homework. Many times we receive “Just a minute,” ...read more

    How far are YOU willing to go?

    “You Want Me To What?” Genesis 22:1-14 I can’t remember the name of the movie, it was on television and I just saw a little bit of it, but one scene is stuck to my heart as though it was riveted. Every time I think of it, it chills my soul! A woman is speaking across the valley of death to her ...read more

    The Wood

    Contributed by Clark Tanner on Nov 6, 2000

     | 45,745 views

    Isaac carried the wood; Jesus carried the wood; and in both cases, Father and Son walked on together.

    Before we turn to the passage of our study today, I feel we must first look at a couple of other verses of scripture. Turn with me to the book of Genesis, chapter 22, verse 6 and let’s read. “AND ABRAHAM TOOK THE WOOD OF THE BURNT OFFERING AND LAID IT ON ISAAC HIS SON, AND HE TOOK IN HIS HAND THE ...read more

    Laughing Away The Burdens

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Dec 4, 2000
    based on 119 ratings
     | 16,178 views

    Abraham laughed in the cynicism of old age; Sarah laughed in the denial that defends against what is inevitable; but beyond both of them God laughed in joy at the triumph of His purposes, fulfilled in two aged followers.

    You have heard it said, “He who laughs last, laughs best.” Let me expand on that: I may laugh, you may laugh, but God will have the last and best laugh, for God’s purposes will be served. Laughter. There are all sorts of reasons to laugh. Some will laugh out of frustration; unable to do what ...read more

     | 6,759 views

    Does God only care about those in the limelight, the Sarahs? Or does he also care about the "second bests," the Hagars?

    The Average One: God Uses "Seconds" (Gen.21:1-21) 1. I love bargains.... 2. Alden’s Christmas tree (1972)--$10; HobbyLobby--$30 (1998) 7.5ft 3.

    God has to test our faith in order to know where we stand with Him.

    This is drama/sermon focusing on the story of Abraham sacrificing Isaac; with the attention paid to Isaac and his cooperation.

    (Build an "altar" of wood on a table on the stage area. Have an older man [Abraham] and an older teenager [Isaac] act out the scene as you describe what is happening. Make sure the teenager is large enough to be able to "overcome" Abraham, if he chose to. Dress contemporarily) Tell an illustration ...read more
