Genesis marks the beginning of all God's work in Creation. It is the first revelation that we are given of God's identity, power, authority, and wisdom. From within these sacred pages, we are introduced to the Eternal and Self-Existing God and those fathers of our faith who were used to fulfill God's redemptive work in the days of old. May this resource empower you to teach your community about the true origins of humanity, the incalculable value of the image of God that every human being bears, and the ancient foundations of our saving faith in Jesus Christ.
