Blessings in Brokenness

Jul 19, 2026    Joe Stewart

We all know what it's like to live in a holding pattern—waiting on God while wondering if He has forgotten us. Genesis 16 and 21 remind us that the only thing worse than waiting on God is wishing you had. When waiting turns into brokenness, God doesn't walk away—He steps into our wilderness. Through the stories of Hagar and Ishmael in Genesis 16 and 21, discover how God's presence, provision, and providence meet broken people and transform painful pasts into hopeful futures. Join us as we discover that God's greatest blessings are often found not apart from brokenness, but in the midst of it.
