Episode Title: Under My Roof: What Are You Willing to Sacrifice for God's Purpose?
Episode Description:
Lot's offer in Genesis 19 is one of the most disturbing moments in Scripture—offering his daughters to protect two strangers. But what if we're missing the point? What if this isn't just about a father's terrible decision, but about recognizing God's purpose when it crosses your path and being willing to protect it at any cost? This episode asks the uncomfortable question: What would you sacrifice to keep God's will under your protection? Your career? Your reputation? Your comfort? And here's the twist—if Lot hadn't been bold enough to intercept those angels and beg them into his home, would his family have been saved at all?
In This Episode:
- The verse that's hard to swallow and why it matters more than you think
- Why Lot offered his daughters before anything else (and what that reveals)
- Three realizations that completely reframe this disturbing story
- The difference between encountering God's purpose and protecting it
- What divine appointments you might be missing because you're too comfortable
- Why Lot's boldness to intercept the angels saved his entire family
- The gut-check question: What precious thing would you sacrifice for God's will?
Key Quote:
"God's purposes are constantly moving through our cities, our workplaces, our neighborhoods. The question isn't whether we'll encounter them. The question is: Will we be bold enough to recognize them and say, 'Come under my roof. I'll protect you. I'll make space for you in my life, no matter what it costs me'?"
