Genesis

It's easy to dismiss the book of Genesis without engaging in the text beyond creation and the fall. But understanding the book of Genesis is crucial to understanding the rest of the Bible. In Genesis, we find the very foundation of our faith, not just the origin of man, but also the origin of God's plan for redemption. Creation is just the beginning.

We don’t have to wonder how God works because He has given us loads of insight in his Word. In this seven-day plan, we’ll walk slowly through Genesis 1-2 to glean seven insights about how God worked “in the beginning,” and what that means for how we ought to work as his image-bearers today.

7 Ways God Worked "In the Beginning"

In Genesis, we encounter God's persistent relationship with his people: he continues to bless them even when they do not hold up their end of the relationship.

In this 4 week plan, listen to the audio guide to hear Scripture, teaching, and a worship song.

Genesis: The Story of God's Faithfulness

The Christian life requires an immense amount of faith. Often when frustrations and challenges arise, we are left wondering where God is.
