302. Genesis 13: How Do Famine and Wealth Both Test Faith?

The Bible Show by Sam and Will

Episode notes

In this episode of The Bible Show, Sam and Will unpack Genesis 13, where Abraham and Lot face a crucial decision about their future. After returning from Egypt with immense wealth, their growing prosperity leads to unexpected conflict. As their herds and flocks expand, tensions rise between their households—forcing them to separate.

What does this story reveal about the dangers of wealth? How does Lot’s decision to chase after what “looks like Eden” lead him toward disaster? And what can we learn from Abraham’s faith and God’s reaffirmation of His promises?
