In the next part of our Vexed series, we step into one of the most disturbing moments in Lot’s life. Genesis 19:1–11 paints a picture of a culture steeped in sexual immorality and abuse. Lot didn’t endorse it—but he didn’t stand against it either. Instead, he compromised. He concealed. And it cost him dearly. Peter tells us that Lot’s soul was tormented by what he saw and heard. He was righteous, but he was worn down. Sound familiar? God cares deeply about this part of the story—not just because of what happened then, but because of what’s happening now. The good news? The gospel doesn’t just expose the darkness—it shines a light that points a compassionate and uncompromising path forward. You don’t want to miss this. See you tomorrow.
We often imagine ourselves very different from the people of the Old Testament. But if you look closely, you’ll find their struggles look a lot like ours.
Take Lot, for example.
Abraham’s nephew is often overlooked, but his life stands as a mirror for ours. Peter tells us Lot’s soul was "vexed"—distressed—by the culture he lived in. And Jesus warned that the culture of the last days would look just like Lot’s.
Many of us believe those days are now.
That’s why we’re launching a new series called Vexed—an honest look at the temptations and torments of living in a prosperous, broken world.
