Thirteen years after Ishmael was born, the LORD appears to Abram to renew their covenant relationship. Among His declarations, God elaborates on the future of Abram's descendants, expands Abram and Sarai's sense of identity, gives Abram a covenant ritual his descendants are to perpetually practice, and makes one particular promise that will require and reveal God's wondrous power. I invite you to join me in this episode as we seek to understand these developments.
