This Sunday, we began a new series in the book of Genesis called Sketches of Redemption that will trace the origin story of God’s redemptive love for a broken world. From the very first words, “In the beginning, God…,” we are reminded that our lives are part of a bigger story—one centered on a loving Creator who delights in His world and in us. In this truth, we find freedom: our worth isn’t in what we achieve, but in who God has made us to be. Genesis 1 invites us to rest in His goodness, to worship Him above all else, and to step with joy into the purpose He has given us.
