Sermon Overview
Genesis is more than a story of beginnings. It is the foundation of everything we believe about God, humanity, sin, and redemption. In these opening chapters, we encounter the sovereign Creator who speaks the world into being, forms man from dust, and breathes life into His image-bearers. We also witness the devastating fall into sin, the unraveling of creation, and the relentless mercy of a God who does not abandon His people.
This series traces the arc from creation to covenant, from blessing to brokenness, and from exile to promise. Along the way, we see the depth of human depravity—but even more, the height of divine grace. Through judgment and mercy, God preserves a line of hope that will ultimately lead to Christ.
Genesis invites us to reorient our lives around the God who made us, who judges sin in righteousness, and who calls us by grace into His redemptive plan. As we walk through these ancient stories, we discover our place in the story He is still writing—one marked by faith, promise, and the steadfast love of a covenant-keeping God.

Genesis opens with the sovereign God who speaks the universe into existence. Every word and act of creation reflects His wisdom, power, and goodness. This passage reorients us to a God-centered view of the world, where He is not just the beginning but the purpose of all things. We were made by Him and for Him.
