Questions From The Book: Women of The Bible -Jean E. Syswerda

READ GENESIS 17:15-16; 18:10-15
1. Both Sarai and Sarah mean "princess", revealing Sarah's place as a mother of a nation. Do you know the meaning of your name? What significance does its meaning have for you?

2. If you were to ask God to change your name, what would you want your name to be, or mean?

3. Put yourself in Sarah's position. Do you think you might have laughed also? Why or why not?

READ GENESIS 21:1-7
4. God fulfilled his promise to Abraham and Sarah in his time. Describe how you think they felt about God's timing?

5. Have you ever waited for God to fulfill a promise? How did you feel? What did you do?

6. What did Sarah say when she gave birth to Isaac (21:6)? Why do you think she said this?

7. Describe a time in your life when God "brought you laughter."

READ GENESIS 16:6; 18:12,15; 21:10
8. Using these verses, choose five adjectives that describe Sarah. In what ways are you similar to Sarah? In what ways are you unlike her?
