Hearts That Expand: Learning Compassion from Abraham and Jesus Today's readings focus on two powerful biblical stories . . . . . . the first from the life of Abraham, Sarah, and Ishmael, and the second from the Gospel account of Jesus healing two possessed men. In the first story, Sarah's jealousy over Hagar and Ishmael leads her to demand their banishment, despite Ishmael being Abraham's son. Abraham, torn but obedient, sends them away with provisions. God intervenes with care and promise, ensuring Ishmael's survival and future as a great nation—reminding us that Abraham is the spiritual ancestor of Jews, Christians, and Muslims. The Gospel story presents a stark contrast: Jesus heals two tormented men, but the local people focus on the loss of their pigs rather than the miracle of healing. They reject Jesus, displaying closed hearts and misplaced priorities. The Homily ends by urging listeners to choose which example to follow: Abraham's compassionate, open heart or the villagers' closed-off indifference. We are invited to let our hearts expand through the grace of God, even when it's difficult, and to strive to love, help, and care for others like Abraham and Jesus did.

Listen to Hearts That Expand: Learning Compassion from Abraham and Jesus ----------------------------------------------------------------- Quote From The Homily And so, then there's us, and we have choices to make. We can become more and more like Abraham or more and more like those people in the town, more and more where our hearts are touched. By the suffering, by the needs, by the hopes and dreams of so many people that we do whatever we can to show tender care, to help to pray, or we close off, we build walls. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Abraham Dismissing Hagar and Ishmael: Dutch Artist: Nicolaes Maes, 1653 One of the artist's earliest works. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Gospel Reading: Matthew 8: 28-34 First Reading: Genesis 21: 5, 8-20

Hour 3 Patrick answers a range of questions regarding adoration in a house, a worry that baptism may not be valid. Also a caller shared her story regarding abortion and another caller thanked Patrick after helping him pray after his mom died from suicide. Linda-We should talk about men as the responsible party for abortions. I think we need to talk about that. (1:16) Cindy-Sister was invited to adoration in someone's house in Mexico. Could adoration be in a house. I thought only in Church? (7:55) Mary-I did the annulment process and it was really good. (18:13) Scott-My mom died from Suicide and I wanted to thank you for your insights about being able to pray for people after things have happened. It was very helpful. (20:36) Bob-Loved your explanation of whether a lady was going to hell - this helped (23:50) Ben-I struggle with 'what if' questions around validly receiving the sacraments? What if my baptism isn't valid? What if I don’t have a valid confession. Can you help me with this? (27:14) Nico-If Pope Leo's actual name was Leo, could he have still chosen that name when he became Pope? (36:19) Manuel (Email)-I’m considering a Sexaholics Anonymous session, but nearest one is in a Methodist place. Is that okay to go there? (37:48) Teresa-Do men receive excommunication for abortion (42:01) Esmeralda-Why did Abraham kick out Ishmael and Hagar? Did God agree to that? (44:34) Dennis-What is your take on 'God is not angry' Billboard? (47:01) John-Does a diocese do a background check to make sure a priest is valid? (48:58)

In this powerful message, Pastor Marcus Mecum dives into Genesis 21:1-14 and reminds us that our mistakes don't have to define our future. Abraham made a mistake when he tried to force God's promise on his own terms, but God still kept His word.Your miracle and your mistake can't live under the same roof. At some point, you have to decide which one you're going to feed.

An Old Testament figure named Hagar identifies God as the One who sees her. As part of our cloud of witnesses, she encourages us to believe that God sees all the details of our lives including those parts we're ashamed of. More than that, as Tim Keller said, God loves us “all the way to the bottom” seeing all of our unlovable parts yet declaring “I love you anyway.” Cloud of Witnesses Cor Chmieleski Hope Community Church - Downtown Minneapolis Download Message Slides For more resources or to learn more about Hope Community Church, visit hopecc.com.

The God Who Sees Us | Waiting on God's Promise What do you do when God gives a promise… but the waiting feels endless? In Genesis 16, Sarai takes control, Abram stays silent, and Hagar runs—but even in the chaos, God shows up. He is El Roi—the God who sees us. In this powerful sermon, Pastor Harrison unpacks the tension of waiting, the temptation to control outcomes, and the truth that God sees you in the middle of it all.

Guest Pastor Steven Cooper preaches from the story of Abraham, Sarah, and Hagar about how God cares for us in all circumstances. The Scriptures for today's sermon are Genesis 16:1-13.

Read Genesis 17:1-26, especially verse 17; Genesis 18:1-15, especially verses 10-13When Paul rehearses the theological significance of God's dealing with Abraham and Sarah's, he presents a picture of faith, and rightly so, but seemingly without much struggle and no mention of their laughter (See Romans 4:1-25, especially verses 18-25). Not only did Abraham and Sarah laugh at God's seemingly ridiculous proposal, but they lived an imperfect life, in spite of the fact that all along the way God spoke to them directly. But, there were long times of silence when their lack of understanding and faith manifested in their actions, examples: lying to Pharaoh when they lived in Egypt during a famine about Sarah not being his wife; a similar episode with King Abimilek lying again with Sarah not being his wife (20:1-18); Abraham''s relationship with Hagar had produced Ishmael, but God insisted that Sarah, not anyone else, would produce the miracle Son of Promise (16:1-16). Abraham and Sarah were not so perfect as Paul describes in Romans 4:18-25, note especially verses 19-20 “... yet he and she did not waver through unbelief regarding the promise of God, what? In the passage in Genesis clearly presents a more realistic human picture of them. The major challenges to their faith was their time waiting and their ages: Abraham was 99(17:24) and Sarah way passed child bearing age (Romans 4:18-19 “...Her womb was dead.”) But from God's point of view and ability He reiterated that he and Sarah must be the parents. At this he fell face down and laughed, “but to himself” (Sarah was close to 90 years of age!) But, God knew they laughed, see also 18:17, even though they thought they were hiding it from God. But, nothing can be hidden from our God, so better to be honest. And even though they lied, God remained faithful, because He realized that they were only human. But, I don't think that their laughter was a sin of disrespect but a sort of nervous laughter overwhelmed by the promise!Finally sometimes in certain difficult to believe situations we need divine hope: Paul suggests in Romans 4:18, “Against all hope, Abraham in hope believed…” This idea may be connected to one of Paul's gifts of the Spirit: the gift of faith (1 Corinthians 12:9 a special impartation of faith, beyond saving faith, to empower to remain hopeful for the miracle promised to happen. This is what I think Abraham, Paul and others received and although remaining imperfect, God brought these promises to pass.Re-read Romans 4:18; Hebrews 10:23-25; Philippians 1:6

In our study in Genesis, we're studying God's revelation of himself through his names. God is teaching us in the life of Abram and Sarai, that all salvation comes from God. In Genesis 16 we learn that God is a God of compassion. He sees two women in their suffering, Sarai and Hagar, and he has compassion on them.

Water in The Rock, or The Rock in the Water? This newletter is lengthy, so let it serve for two Shabbats. There will be no newsletter next week due to visiting Jacob's Tent services Up to the Mountain. In the last several newsletters, we've taken a close look at the many prophecies embodied in Yeshua's walk on the water of the Galilee in Matthew Fourteen. How different was Yeshua's perception of the walk than Peter and the other disciples'! For the one who was the water in the Rock…and the Rock…in the wilderness for the Israelites, it was no problem to also be the Rock in the water to his students. “He alone spreads out the heavens and treads on the waves of the sea…” (Job 9:8) Sometimes it helps to put the Gospel of Matthew back into its original Hebrew text. While no one is certain of where that text might be (only fragments are known to survive), there is a version whose provenance can only be traced so far back in Jewish history, yet it is quite accurate considering it was used by a less-than-friendly readership. It is the Shem Tov's Evan Bohan version from the Fourteenth Century. The differences between the Hebrew and Greek texts are not drastic. To Yeshua, the stroll on the Galilee during the storm was perceived much differently than his students, who perceived it as dangerous, chaotic, and "contrary." In the Hebrew Matthew version, the word for contrary is neged, or opposing, opposite. Neged has a good side, too, for Adam's wife Chavah was his ezer kenegdo, or “helper opposite him,” which brings balance. When opposition is a helper, it is because in spite of the opposition, the overall purpose is to achieve unity walking in the Word. The opposite helper pulls the weight of the yoke beside the other, ensuring the burden does not get dragged in endless circles, but can go straight. For example, grace and truth are not opposed to one another. One cannot be practiced at the expense of the other. In Yeshua, they work together. Sarah wasn't such a good helper when she suggested Hagar as a solution to their problem, but she was a good helper when she advised Abraham to send away Ishmael, who had not internalized the righteousness of his father and threatened the inheritance of Isaac. The disciples did not see the waves of the storm as their ezer kenegdo, or helping opposition, but as a destructive force. They were just rowing in circles in the middle of the Galilee, taking on water. Galilee does indeed imply circles in Hebrew, like a roll or spool, and a wave is a gal, pronounced gahl (not to be confused with other gals). This is perhaps what it has in common with the “circle of the earth,” and why from Isaiah's prophecy, Galilee came to be called “Galilee of the Nations.” In Jewish tradition, Moses hid the Rock that followed them in the wilderness in the bottom of the Galilee before he died, which explains why Yeshua would have made his early home near the Galilee and begun his ministry there. The Rock was both the water in the Rock, the Rock, and the Rock in the water. It also explains how Yeshua's ministry prepared the way for the nations to hear the Gospel message from his disciples: “But there will be no more gloom for her who was in anguish; in earlier times He treated the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali with contempt, but later on He shall make it glorious, by the way of the sea, on the other side of Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles. The people who walk in darkness will see a great light; those who live in a dark land, the light will shine on them.” (Is 9:1-2) As the region of the Galilee represented the Gentile nations in the time from Isaiah to Yeshua's ministry, so the disciples were dispersed to proclaim the Light of the Word Yeshua to the scattered of Israel as well as the Gentiles who dwelled among the raging waves of tormenting wickedness. Even as we are rescued, we are tested of the Ruach HaKodesh, the Holy Spirit,

Send us a textThe wise man, like Abraham, does not spurn Hagar. For she is merely preparatory to Sarah. This is the analogy that the great Jewish Platonist, Philo of Alexandria, makes when discussing an education in the liberal arts versus the life of philosophy. While the liberal arts have the dignity only of the concubine, Philo says, education in the liberal arts is nevertheless a necessary step before one can ascend the ladder to Sarah, i.e. philosophic contemplation. Jonathan and Ryan discuss selections from Philo's writings on education and philosophy.Richard M.

On this episode of Exclusively Van Halen, we talk about Sammy Hagar's bold invitation to Wolfgang Van Halen to join him for a special Van Halen-themed residency, the dream that inspired his emotional tribute to Eddie, and why he still holds out hope for more musical magic—even without Alex Van Halen. Sammy Hagar is turning up the heat again—and this time, he's calling out to Eddie Van Halen's son, Wolfgang, with a heartfelt and electrifying offer: “Hey Wolfie, let's do a residency someday—just one show of Van Halen songs!” In a new interview with WRIF, the Red Rocker didn't hold back his admiration for Wolfgang, praising the Mammoth WVH frontman for blazing his own trail. “He's not trying to be his dad, and I love that,” Hagar said with genuine pride. “Let that boy boogie!” Despite Wolfgang's past statements that he won't perform Van Halen songs live, Hagar is holding out hope for a one-night-only celebration. But that's not all. Sammy revealed something even more surreal—his new song Encore, Thank You, Goodnight was inspired by a dream he had where he wrote a song with Eddie Van Halen himself. “I had a friggin' dream and wrote a song with Eddie!” Sammy shared. “That's as real as it gets.” He describes the track as a final chapter, a spiritual jam session that gave him the closure he needed. “The ‘what if' is gone now. I feel good. Healthy, even.” The track features none other than Joe Satriani, who Sammy says completely captured Eddie's essence. “The intro… I don't even try to figure out what Joe's doing,” Hagar laughed. “I ain't torturing myself with that.” One person not involved? Alex Van Halen. “Al and I… we've got a problem,” Hagar admitted. “You'd have to ask him what it is. I don't know. But I knew he probably wouldn't be part of it.” Still, when asked if he regrets his time in Van Halen, Sammy didn't hesitate: “Oh, hell no! The only regret I have is that we didn't make more music. Eddie and I were just getting started. We were capable of so much more.” And as a bonus, Hagar revealed he'll be part of Black Sabbath's farewell show, originally planning to sing No More Tears until Ozzy Osbourne himself asked to sing Hagar's Rock Candy! So now? Sammy's cranking up the volume on Flying High Again. You won't want to miss this episode of Exclusively Van Halen—packed with heart, history, and one seriously rocking dream. #VanHalen #SammyHagar #WolfgangVanHalen #MammothWVH #EddieVanHalen #JoeSatriani #AlexVanHalen #OzzyOsbourne #BlackSabbath #RockNews #ExclusivelyVanHalen #JohnnyBeaneTV Want to create live streams like this?

Where do you run when crisis hits? When grief, fear, or loss shake your world, is there a safe place to land? In this deeply personal episode of A Widow's Heart, host Pam Lundell welcomes author, speaker, and Samaritan's Purse leader Lynne Rienstraw to talk about her powerful new book, Sacred Refuge: Finding Unexpected Shelter in Your Crisis. Their conversation moves from childhood wounds to widowhood, from cancer to car crashes—but through it all, a deeper truth emerges there is a refuge, and His name is Jesus. Pam and Lynn reflect on stories of modern-day women and sacred sisters from Scripture—like Hagar, Eve, and the widow from 2 Kings—who found hope and provision in the middle of heartbreak. Whether you're walking through deep loss, trying to silence the lies, or simply wondering if God really sees you, this episode is a tender invitation to rest under His wings. You're not alone. There is a safe place. And maybe this conversation is the reminder your heart's been waiting for.

You ever feel like you're surrounded by a million "likes" and "followers" but still feel completely... invisible? Like, are we just screaming into the void of the internet, or is somebody actually seeing us? And speaking of being seen, has God really noticed all the hard work you're putting in? It's a lot, I know!  In this episode I aim to convey that: You are SEEN by God, especially when you feel invisible. Don't look to people for validation. Go to El-Roi! Even in the desert moments, God is there. Your cry to be seen? God hears it. The next time you feel unseen, turn to God and say, "El-Roi, you are the God who sees me." You are NOT alone, my friend. If this episode touched your heart like a good mariachi song, share it with your friends and leave a review! And don't forget to tag me @biancajuarezofficial. We need to lift each other up. And remember, God sees you, even when you feel like nobody else does.  Until next time,  B RESOURCES/LINKS Takeaways Feeling alone in a crowd is a common experience. The desire for validation is deeply rooted in human psychology. Leadership can be a challenging journey filled with uncertainty. Hagar's story illustrates the struggle of feeling unseen. Being seen by God can provide profound comfort and validation. The need to be recognized is essential for emotional well-being. Isolation can lead to feelings of anxiety and depression. God's recognition is more important than human validation. The journey of faith often involves waiting and uncertainty. We are all seen by God, even in our darkest moments. ⋇ Convoy of Hope - Empowering Women and Girls Together Donate here https://convoyofhope.org/bianca/  ⋇ Bianca's new book Grit Don't Quit: Developing Resilience And Faith When Giving Up Isn't An Option. https://amzn.to/3MO74OC  ⋇ The Grit Don't Quit Bible Study is now available. https://www.biancaolthoff.com/gdq  ⋇ So grateful to our sponsors!

Today we are reminded that God sees you and provides for you. He is El Roi, the God who sees, and Jehovah Jireh, the God who provides. These names of God are beautifully illustrated in the tale of two step-brothers. Both sons of Abraham, but dramatically different stories. Whether you feel forgotten like Hagar or tested like Abraham, God knows your story. He sees your pain, your questions, your hopes, and He will meet you right there. He sees you, and He will see to your provisions.

Discover the profound story of Hagar, the Egyptian slave girl who named God El Roi – "the God who sees me." In this powerful message, we explore how God meets us in our deepest vulnerabilities, hears our pain, and sees the longings of our hearts. Just as He saw Hagar and set her free, He sees you and is working to bring redemption and hope into your story. Do you see the God who sees you?

The impossible becomes reality: the child of promise is born. Isaac—laughter—is cradled in the arms of an elderly mother, and Abraham, at one hundred years old, rejoices at the faithfulness of God. But joy is not without conflict. Old wounds resurface, tensions rise between Sarah and Hagar, and once again Abraham must make a painful decision. Through it all, God proves Himself the protector of both promise and outcast.   The Rev. Dr. Adam Filipek, pastor of Holy Cross and Immanuel Lutheran Churches in Lidgerwood, ND, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Genesis 21.  To learn more about Holy Cross and Immanuel Lutheran Churches, visit www.hcilc.com. Genesis isn't just the start of the Bible; it's the foundation of everything.

Today, Lisa and Laura kick off a brand-new series, Names of God. In biblical times, names were of great importance—they conveyed a person's essence, history, nature, or character. As we explore the various names of God in the Old Testament, we gain insight into His character. With each name, we will learn a new attribute, deepening our understanding of and growing closer to God. In today's episode, we delve into Genesis 16 which is the story of Abram, Sarai, and Hagar. Here we uncover the first name in our series: El Roi, the God who sees. Do you struggle to believe that you are seen? Do you wonder if God hears your prayers? Do you believe your suffering is insignificant? If so, don't miss this episode. Grab your Bible and get ready to encounter the God who sees you. Open your Heart to our key Scripture. Genesis 16 Open your Bible to other Scriptures referenced in this episode. Psalm 9:10: Those who know your name put their trust in you, for you, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek you. Exodus 33:19: I will make all my goodness pass before you, and will proclaim before you my name, “The Lord”; and I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show mercy on whom I will show mercy. Proverbs 18:10: The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous man runs into it and is safe. Isaiah 43:1: But now thus says the Lord, He who created you, O Jacob, he who formed you, O Israel: “Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine.” Psalm 56:8: You have kept count of my tossings; put my tears in your bottle! Are they not in your book?  Invite Him in with this episode's questions for reflection. Who do you turn to to tell you who you are and what you are worth?

Chris Sherrod continues our Year of the Word series this Mother's Day, exploring how Hagar, Leah, Jochebed, and Hannah's unexpected trials were where God was leading them the entire time.

WHAT GOD DOES flows from WHO GOD IS. Genesis 16:1-13 NIVNow Sarai, Abram's wife, had borne him no children. But she had an Egyptian slave named Hagar; so she said to Abram, “The Lord has kept me from having children.

Abram's household is unraveling under the weight of God's promise, yet to be fulfilled even ten years later. Sarai, still barren, offers her servant Hagar, and what follows is not a neat solution, but a tangled story of pride, power, and pain. And yet, during it all, something extraordinary happens. A fugitive slave girl becomes the first person in Scipture to name God. "You are a God who sees me," she says. Genesis 16 is a chapter of human failure—but also of divine faithfulness, mercy, and vision. Rev. Roger Mullet, pastor of Prince of Peace Lutheran Church in Buffalo, WY, joins the Rev.
