As the aftermath of Adam and Eve's sin continues to unfold, we find unexpected hope as the light of the Gospel pierces the darkness of Genesis 3 with the promise of a savior, an invitation to hope and faith, and the gift of atonement.

SMALL GROUP QUESTIONS:

- What does Adam's act of naming Eve teach us about the nature of faith? How can we cultivate a similar faith that believes God's promises, even when circumstances seem dire?

- Has there ever been a major issue in your life where you knowingly refused to agree with what God’s Word said? What caused you to repent? What happened after you repented?

- What are your honest feelings about God’s response to Adam and Eve’s sin, and the reality of the lake of fire awaiting those who reject Christ? Do you feel it’s fair? Are there any questions you have about these things?

- God’s grace and mercy show up powerfully in the darkness of

Genesis 3. Share a time when you experienced the light of God’s grace in your life during a dark time.

- If Christians aren’t seeking to live forever on the earth and should desire Heaven, why should we care about our health?
