In this episode, we’re wrapping up our Genesis Takeaway series with a powerful reflection on the story of Sodom and Gomorrah. At first glance, it’s a story of judgment, but when we slow down and look deeper, it reveals profound lessons about hesitation, obedience, and trust.

Are you struggling to move forward in faith? Do you find yourself looking back at what’s familiar, even when you know God is calling you into something new? Today, we’re diving into the dangers of hesitation, the cost of looking back, and the temptation to stop short of God’s best.

Join me as we explore how these lessons apply to our daily lives and what it truly means to trust God’s call forward—without hesitation. Plus, I’ll share a personal story about my own struggle with letting go and stepping into freedom.

Don’t miss this episode—it just might be the encouragement you need to take your next bold step of faith!
