Introduction Into Genesis

Feb 23, 2025    Debbie Courtney

Genesis isn’t just history—it’s our story. As 1 Corinthians 10:11 says, these accounts were written to guide us. Through Genesis, we discover who God is—merciful, gracious, and faithful (Exodus 34:6).

Four Key Events: Creation | Fall | Flood | Nations

Four Key People: Abraham | Isaac | Jacob | Joseph

Genesis teaches us faith in action—how real people, flaws and all, trusted God. Hebrews 11 reminds us that faith means stepping out, even when we can’t see the whole picture.

Like Peter in Matthew 14, we’re called to “walk on water”—to trust God daily. By studying Genesis, we grow our faith and learn to step boldly into His promises.
