Genesis 1-3 tells the origin story of humanity, including our relationship with God, one another, and the rest of creation (from earthworms to oceans, distant stars to time itself). These ancient Scriptures shaped Jesus’ theological imagination and kingdom mission.
Exploring their context and theology helps us answer important questions today, such as: How should we relate to the God who created everything? How does this Creator God intend the world to be? And, perhaps most pressing, what does it mean to be human, the very image of God?
A Beautiful View: Rediscovering Genesis’ Origin Story
September 9, 2025 | Speaker: David Wade
Genesis 1-3 tells the true story of God creating the universe, with a major focus on the "why". It reveals God’s purposes for creation, God’s special relationship with humanity, and the consequences of trusting or not trusting our Maker. Exploring this ancient cosmology in its context reveals an intentional Creator, invites humility and curiosity, and ultimately points to Jesus of Nazareth as the fulfillment of our story.
