This week on Further, Brenton sits down with Paul Fischbach to discuss Genesis 18 and the central question it raises: is anything too hard for the Lord? They explore the difference between believing God is capable of anything and assuming He has promised to do whatever we want, and how to discern which of Scripture's promises apply to us today without cherry-picking verses out of context.
Paul offers encouragement for those tempted toward cynicism in the face of unanswered prayer, pointing to Jesus' own submission to the Father's will and the unchanging goodness of God's character. They also talk about what it means to experience God's presence, how to think about emotional highs in worship, and how to remain faithful in dry seasons when God feels distant. Reflecting on Abraham and Sarah's laughter, Paul explains how God's patience and correction work together, and where honest doubt crosses into sinful unbelief.
The episode closes with a look at Jesus' invitation in Matthew 11, showing how true rest comes not from escaping hard circumstances, but from taking on His yoke and submitting to His gentle direction.
