I invite you to enjoy the study of Genesis “The Beginning” for the next few weeks (ending Ash Wednesday). Along with my own personal study, I have explored thoughts from other studies on Genesis. May we all learn and grow from this time together.
Genesis is a book of beginnings that are waiting to be discovered. The word Genesis is translated “Beginning.”
* The Beginning of Creation: Our readings include the beginning of the universe and the beginning of humanity that is loved and taken care of by a sovereign God.
* The Beginning of Choice: How sin happened and the suffering and death that followed human disobedience.
* The Beginning of Redemption: God makes and keeps His promises to be faithful to all He has created; so as we read we will see God’s follow up work of redemption.
* The Beginning of Faith: In return, humanity needs to remain faithful to the Creator, because only God can help humanity overcome the evil that plagues the human soul.
