Knowing facts about God and Genesis is surely helpful, and doctrines from the book of Genesis are as fascinating as they are necessary. However useful these are, they will not be enough for the Christian life.  

One of the things that make up a huge part of our relationship with God is our awe, admiration, and amazement of Him. We must always be captivated by His magnificent attributes. In fact, one of the problems or causes of boredom when it comes to Scripture reading is the tendency to memories facts, without meditating on His attributes.
