In the Beginning…

This new series takes us to the opening chapters of the Bible—Genesis 1–4—where we encounter the foundations of life as we know it.

Across these four weeks, we’ll explore how these early chapters speak into some of the biggest questions we all carry: Who are we? What’s gone wrong with the world? Who is God? And what hope is there for the future? In these pages, we meet the God of creation and judgment, and we see both the beauty of human potential and the tragedy of human failure.

Genesis also raises important questions about how faith relates to science. While these chapters may touch on areas that intersect with scientific inquiry, their primary focus is not on explaining physical processes, but on revealing who God is, who we are, and how we are meant to relate to Him, to one another, and to the world.

This is a complex and sometimes challenging space, but also a rich opportunity. As we engage both God’s Word and God’s world, we’re invited to think carefully, grow in understanding, and hold our convictions with humility. Faithful Christians may come to different conclusions on some of these questions—and as we do, we seek to continue loving, serving, and learning together.
