What Creation Tells Us About God: Sovereignty, Wisdom, and Benevolence
Manage episode 462095668 series 3616120
What if the opening chapters of Genesis offer more than just a historical account—what if they reveal profound truths about our relationship with God? In our debut episode of PREPPED, Dr. James Spencer invites you to step beyond debates on creationism and historical accuracy to uncover the rich theological insights woven into Genesis 1:1–2:3.
Together, we’ll tackle three fundamental questions: Who is God? Who are we in relation to Him? And how should this divine relationship shape our lives?
Discover the intricate narrative and poetic design of the creation story, drawing parallels between Genesis and the imagery of Israel’s tabernacle and temple to deepen our understanding of creation.
In the second half of today’s journey, we’ll explore God’s sovereignty, wisdom, and goodness, alongside humanity’s inherent dignity and dependence on our Creator. Learn how embracing our limitations as image-bearers allows us to flourish within God’s ordered creation, achieving the rest and harmony He intended for us.
