Welcome to Intro to the Beginning Stories. I am your host Susie. Genesis is the perfect place to be. In Genesis, the animals talk to each other. The first humans talk to the animals.

They don't have to work for a paycheck or pay a bill. It's perfect until-as in every time in every place on this planet, there is sorrow, and death.
