Introduction:
- How long can I wait for God to keep his promises?

1. Sarai's Folly (and Abram’s Acquiescence) (v1-6).
2. Hagar’s Hardship (v7-14).
3. Ishmael’s Birth (v15-16).

Conclusion:
- Impatience with God leads to bad (faithless) decisions.
- It’s no surprise that sexual sin leads to marital strife.
- Surrogacy is not God’s solution for childlessness – adoption is.
