SUMMER SERIES - "GENESIS"
August 9 - Leah and Rachel. When Jacob falls in love with his uncle’s daughter, Rachel, he is willing to do anything to get her. Love drives us to do many things. This is why we can be thankful that God’s love for us drove Him to do the ultimate thing – to sacrifice His Son for our salvation. Text: Genesis 29:10-12, 15-18.

August 2 - Jacob & Esau. From the womb, two brothers, Jacob and Esau, feud with each other. When we feud with others, how are we to handle these feuds? Our desire to love others must always be stronger than our desire to triumph over others. Text: Genesis 25:21-26a.

July 26 - Isaac. God makes an unthinkable request of Abraham –to sacrifice his only son, Isaac. But a human sacrifice can never atone for human sins. God Himself must provide the perfect sacrifice for the sins of the world. Text: Genesis 22:1-8a
Video of Service
July 19- Sodom & Gomorrah. Sodom and Gomorrah were the epitome of wickedness in the ancient world. Yet, in spite of their wickedness, Abraham argues for God’s grace. When we see wickedness, how do we argue? Do we argue for judgment or grace? Text: Genesis 18:23-26

July 12 - Abraham. God continues to seek new beginnings in a world filled with old sin. He makes a promise to Abraham to, from him, bring forth a new nation that will be a beacon of righteousness in a world darkened by sin. He also shows us how righteousness ultimately comes about—by faith. Text: Genesis 15:1-6.

July 5 - Babel. Noah brings a new beginning, but humanity quickly falls back into its old ways as it seeks to usurp God’s position by building a tall tower. This tower demonstrates both the folly and the danger of human ambition. Human ambition is filled with folly because, of course, no one can build a tower to the heavens. But human ambition is also filled with danger because it cannot compete with God’s perfect commands. Text: Genesis 11:1-9
