Sermons, Scripture, and trail-worn conversations for the apprentice of Jesus who is tired of the shallow end.
The Name You’re Building
“Let us make a name for ourselves.” That line from Genesis 11 is as ancient as humanity and as current as your phone. In the final week of GENESIS: The Preface, we walk the whole story arc one more time and land at Babel, where God answers our tower-building with something far better than judgment. What name are you building?
Against The Current
Generations pass, violence fills the earth, and God’s heart is grieved. Then one man walks with God against the current of his whole world. In GENESIS: The Preface, we step into Genesis 5-7 and the story of Noah. What does faithfulness look like when everyone around you is drifting the other way?
When the Fracture Spreads
We live in the age of comparison, and it didn’t start with Instagram. In Genesis 4, the fracture between God and humanity spreads to brothers, and comparison turns into envy, then into the first death in Scripture. In GENESIS: The Preface, we ask where comparison is quietly shaping our hearts and how God meets us right there.
In the Beginning: God Formed Partners For Life
Every great rescue story has that moment when someone shows up right as the fight is about to be lost. Genesis 2 tells us God built that need into us from the very start. In GENESIS: The Preface, we look at how God formed humanity for partnership, what the word “helper” really means, and why none of us were made to carry life alone.
In the Beginning: God Ordered The World
Genesis opens with a world that is formless and empty, waiting for God to speak. Then chapter 1 sings creation into order, function, and purpose, one rhythm at a time. In GENESIS: The Preface, we slow down through Genesis 1:1-2:3 and ask what it looks like for God to bring order to the chaos in our own lives.
In the Beginning: Learning to Read God’s Story
What if you heard the opening pages of the Bible for the very first time? In week one of GENESIS: The Preface, we read Genesis 1 out loud and learn to hear it the way its first audience did, as ancient theology about who God is, who we are, and what we were made for.
