Episode Title: When God Says "Go"

Episode Description:

A 75-year-old man. No GPS. No address. Just God saying "go to a land I will show you." What happens next involves a famine, a lie, a palace, some plagues, and a mysterious ending where everyone walks away richer than they started. Abram's story isn't a roadmap for making questionable decisions—it's proof that God's plans unfold even when we can't see past the next step. And sometimes, especially when we mess up along the way.

In This Episode:

  • Why God chose retirement age to start Abram's greatest adventure
  • The uncomfortable moment when faith meets famine and desperation kicks in
  • How Abram's lie about Sarai somehow led to blessings (and what that means for us)
  • What it means to say "yes" when God's only instruction is "go"

Key Quote:

"God asks us to go, God has plans for us—do we know them? Do we fully understand them? Probably not, but God knows what He is doing and God works in mysterious ways."
