About this episode

Pastor Kevin Cain explores Genesis 1–3, discussing foundational questions about God, humanity, and the church's mission.

In the second installment of his 16-week biblical literacy series, Pastor Kevin Cain dives into Genesis 1–3, revealing that these foundational chapters serve as the bedrock for the entire scripture. Pastor Kevin unpacks three key questions — Who is God? Who are we? and What do we do now? — exploring God as Creator, the concept of Imago Dei (humanity made in the image of God), and more. With compelling clarity, he connects the work of the church directly back to Genesis, showing that all of it is a movement back toward the perfection of Eden. This message closes with a powerful call to see every person as an image-bearer of God and to let that truth fuel our mission in the world.
