Here we explore the amazing display of God's grace in Cain's life. Cain is treated more than fairly by God. In his pride he turns from God and pursues his own way. Cain and Abel are a real study in contrast. They display for us the dramatic difference between true religion and false religion. Join us as we gain clarity on this important issue through the lives of Cain and Abel.

Cain and Abel are contrasted here. We explore the contrast that exist between their hearts. How did they come to God? What did they want? How do their hearts reveal the focus in our own approach to God? Join us and find out. (Due to a technical difficulty the audio is not the best on this one.)

Here we see great faith exhibited by Adam, we see great compassion displayed by God, and we see great grace being poured out by God on Adam and Eve. Join us as we explore this amazing section of God's word.

In this meeting we explore how the pain that God has explicitly given to Adam in the curse ultimately points us to our Lord Jesus. We see how the curse is ultimately a blessing to those who put their faith Jesus because it reminds us of our need to depend on Him.

Here we see God's grace in action. From the calling of Adam in the garden after he sinned to the promise of the seed that will crush the serpents head. It is all grace. It is all of God and for His glory. This incredible revelation of God's gracious nature is what we explore in this message. Join us as we seek to know God better.

Here we explore how Eve was deceived by the serpent. How Adam engaged in an act of intentional rebellion. Because of their actions they died spiritually and all people born to them are spiritually dead and corrupted so that they do not desire God. We look unflinchingly at the fact that God allowed this to happen. Why? Well there are actually some important answers to this in God's word. Join us as we explore it and see the rich treasures of God that are revealed to us there.

Here we see God bringing about the miracle of marriage as He creates for Adam a Bride. We get to see how God causes Adam to realize his great need of dependence of God for completion. We also see the heart of God put on display in the method He uses to bring about the creation of the bride for Adam. In the middle of this we see an incredible picture of Jesus displayed by the Father for us. Join us as we explore this great passage together.

In this section we take a look at the garden where God placed Adam. We contemplate the trees that God planted there. We look at how God has intentionally planned the best way in which to display His glory. Everything God does is intentional.

In this arguably pivotal verse in Genesis we see God giving man the first commands. These are man's marching orders, his reason for existence, his commission. What do these commands mean? What long term effects do they have? How is the heart of God and His Kingdom revealed in them? Join us as we explore these questions in detail.

It is an astounding picture of the power and diversity of God. Join us as we explore how God's powerful works draw us to Him.

In this first message on Genesis we explore how the first chapter of Genesis is literal. We look at how the rest of Bible views the first days of creation. We also examine the personhood of Adam and how scripture sees him as a real person.

We explore here the context of our existence as believers. How our lives should be marked by goodness righteousness and truth with the goal of reaching others with the gospel.

We explore here how we need to safeguard ourselves against the false teaching that so easily can corrupt our understanding of God and thus our relationship with God and lead us astray.

Here we explore the planning evident in the promise of God of the incarnation as it is foreshadowed throughout scripture. It is truly exciting to see the plan of God unfold in His word.

A lot of people believe in Jesus, what causes faith to be saving faith. It is of critical importance because as we explore the passage it becomes clear that simple belief does not save one's soul.
