CREATION Genesis is a book all about ‘beginnings’ — and in Genesis 1-2 we saw the beginning of everything. Every but God. He has always been and will always be self-sufficient.

As Aaron taught us on CREATION, the beginning of The Story of God, we see the main character — the Hero of the Story, God — speaking this universe into existence. Effortlessly, with infinite creative beauty. It wasn’t … and then it was!

On Wednesday night we concluded with three thoughts:

  • This world is good, and
  • Human life is very good, and
  • God is truly good.

Consider these questions [from the Ask & Explore]:

  • How many of you feel confident you could summarize the Bible? Not just the story of Jesus’ life, but the entire Bible?
  • [After seeing amazing photos and considering the staggering immensity and beautiful design of space and this earth] Looking at the universe like this … does it make you feel small?
  • What were we made for? What is our ‘chief end?’ (“Man’s chief end is to glorify God and enjoy Him forever.” —Westminster Shorter Catechism)
Next week: The Fall (Genesis 3). Read ahead.
