Genesis, the first book of the Holy Bible, is not just about the distant past and the faraway future. It speaks to us in the flesh of our present life; it addresses our struggles. In fact, the stories of the book of Genesis have it all: religion, politics, sex, violence, wars, famine, love and hatred, world- wide disasters, gastronomical interests, ethical dilemmas, suspense and intrigue-all wrapped up in a true and timeless story with cosmic bearings and eternal repercussions. Its shockingly sinful characters manage to leave a legacy of high moral and spiritual standards.
- Cringe as Adam and Eve make their fateful choice to eat the forbidden fruit.
- Admire Noah's faith in the face of decades of mockery.
- Tremble as Abraham raises his knife against his promised heir.
- Be inspired by Joseph's wisdom and ability to forgive.
See Genesis in a new light as author Jacques Doukhan shares how the stories of these ancient sinners of flesh and blood can open a door to ourselves, to our hearts, and to our minds, "for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness" (2 Tim. 3:16).
