The Story of Scripture - Act 1: Creation, Scene 1
Welcome to the Narthex! Join Kevin, Josh, and Chris as we start a special 12-part series called, The Story of Scripture. Each week we will walk through the story of the Bible, looking to understand our place in the "true story of the whole world."
This first episode is Act 1: Creation (Pt. 1)
In addition to the episode we will include some questions for discussion in these show notes. Some of these questions have been adapted from "Surge School, Quarter 1: Gospel Story" ©2019 Surge Network (www.surgenetwork.com); and from "The True Story of the Whole World" Goheen & Bartholomew, (Brazos Press: Grand Rapids, MI, 2020)
Discussion Questions:
1) Describe the peace that existed in the garden.
2) What was humanity created to do?
3) What do you learn about God in this story? About people? About God's world?
4) How do the Psalms (e.g., Pss. 8; 19; 33; 65; 104) show God as present and active in the world? How could this understanding help to reshape our view of the world?
5) Why is it so important for Christians to remember that God made all things good (see Gen. 1:4, 12, 18, 21, 25, 31)? What does the apostle Paul mean when he says that to deny the goodness of creation is something “taught by demons” (1 Tim. 4:1–5)?
