Living in God's Story: Episode 1 - Beginnings

Welcome to the first episode of "Living in God's Story," a new series exploring the Old Testament. In this episode, we delve into the creation narratives of Genesis 1 and 2, examining their distinct portrayals of God and humanity.

Genesis 1 reveals a majestic, universal creation by God (Elohim), while Genesis 2 offers a more personal account, with God (Yahweh) forming humanity from the earth. Sometimes, we need to focus on God as transcendent and all-powerful; at other times, we need to understand God as intimately involved in our lives.

Amidst the recent tragedy that has touched our community, these creation stories remind us of God's ongoing presence and purpose. They guide us in responding to sorrow both as individuals and as a community.

Join us as we explore these foundational texts and their relevance to our lives today.
