This week we dive into Genesis 1-24!
Hey Reading Community,

We hope you got our welcome message! This week you will dive into, well, the beginning! These are some of the most important pages of the entire Bible as they lay out the problem statement for humanity. Humans, when given the opportunity, will rebel against God and sometimes choose evil. However, God will not let evil have the last say and will initiate some sort of divine rescue plan through Abraham and his family.

Onwards!
Jon, Tim, & The Bible Project Crew

Summary
This week you'll embark on an epic journey with some of the most renowned individuals found in our Biblical narrative: Adam & Eve, Noah, Abraham, and the elusive Melchizadek. Big topics that have been debated for centuries are first revealed to us in the dense story and rich words found in the first few pages of the Bible. Creation, the Fall, the Flood, and God’s covenant with Abraham are all tightly packed in the readings this week. What answers might you find? What new questions will you have?
Hungry to Read Ahead?
Next week we will be reading through Genesis 25-45 and watching the second installment of our Torah Series, Genesis 12–50.
