July 27 — No Laughing Matter (Genesis 20-21)
Lead Pastor Eric Vander Ploeg

God's truth is true whether someone believes in him or not, and God's promises are no laughing matter. When Abraham doubts God's plan, a whole nation suffers and is saved. When he doubts God's promise, God surprises him with a son. And when he doubts God's provision and takes matters into his own hands, an illegitimate child leads to a great enemy of the faith. This week challenges us to take God's promises seriously and reminds us that those who laugh at God's plans won't be laughing for long.
