About this episode

This sermon explores how sin fractures humanity's relationship with God and highlights the need for His saving grace.

Sin fractures humanity’s relationship with God and introduces shame, fear, and brokenness into the human story. In this sermon, we see how our rebellion reveals our deep need for God’s saving grace. Bible Reading: Genesis 3:1–24 Preacher: Bishop Paul Barker This episode is part of The Beginning of Everything , a teaching series exploring Genesis 1–11. As we open the Scriptures, we see the beauty of creation, the tragedy of the fall, and God’s unfolding purpose for the world. We encounter the God who creates, provides, judges, and shows mercy—and discover how the beginning helps us make sense of life today. Find out more at cityonahill.com.au/genesis
