Created by God: Why Genesis Shapes the Entire Christian Worldview
Show: Equipping You in Grace with Dave Jenkins
Series: Created by God — Foundations for a Biblical Worldview
Episode: Week 1 (Genesis 1–3)
Show Summary
In this first episode of our March series, we explore why Genesis 1–3 forms the foundation of the entire Christian worldview. Genesis reveals the nature of God, the dignity and identity of humanity, the meaning of life, the reality of sin, and the promise of redemption. Dave explains how every major cultural debate today ultimately returns to the question first asked in Genesis 3:1: “Did God really say?”
