About Between The Creations
From the publisher's feed
Join us each week as Laurien talks with various guests about theology, the Bible, and how we can best live during the between time.
Between The Creations covers a variety of topics pertaining to theology, Christianity, and the Bible. We are living, quite literally, between the creations. Genesis 1-2 gives us the account of the first creation, while Revelation 21 tells us of a renewed, restored creation. In the midst of this, we often get stuck in the grey spaces between an idealized, sterile theology and real-life. We are continually needing to re-think, re-learn, and grow in this grey space where we live—between the creations.
