Reaching Beyond the Arguments
In every generation, the first chapters of Genesis spark questions. Was the earth shaped in six literal days—or six symbolic eras? Did Eden once blossom in physical soil—or is it the dream of humanity’s lost intimacy with God?
Yet amid these debates, a deeper truth calls to us: the road itself matters more than the map's details. Whether you approach Genesis through the lens of young-earth creation or old-earth metaphor, the essential truth remains the same: we are travelers on a broken road, longing for home.
The Road of Redemption does not hinge on our perfect understanding of ancient history. It hinges on what we will do today with the longing that still stirs within us.

The First Step: A Story Bigger Than Time
Genesis opens not just the Bible—it opens our story.
A story of beginnings.
A story of blessings squandered and promises whispered.
A story where God's voice still echoes in our restless hearts.
As we take the first steps on the Road of Redemption, we are not asked to solve the mysteries of time. We are asked to recognize the ache. The separation. The hope.
The heart of Genesis is not a scientific manual.
It is an invitation: Come back. Trust again. Walk forward.

Why This Matters Now
Today’s world echoes Eden’s fall more than ever. Distrust. Division. Disconnection. Whether we live in skyscrapers or deserts, the ancient yearning remains: to walk again with God in the cool of the day.
Genesis reminds us that the human condition isn’t just about progress or regress—it’s about relationship.
And the Road of Redemption begins by admitting:
We are not where we were meant to be.
The question Genesis poses isn’t just "How did it all begin?"
It’s "Will you return?"
Walking Together
As we journey through Genesis, hold space for wonder. Hold space for mystery. But above all, hold space for the living God who still calls you forward.
