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 episode is Act 1: Creation (Pt. 2)
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) A number of authors have made the point that the evangelical tradition lives without a doctrine of creation. Do you agree? Why or why not?
2) What might be the relationship between the Genesis story and modern scientific ideas about the origins of the earth and human life?
3) What did you learn about God in this story? About people? About God's world?
4) Genesis shows the universe coming into being at a word from God, and in the New Testament that same Word is shown to give order to all things (see John 1:3; Heb. 1:3). How has God ordered political authority, economic life, sports, art, and emotionality?
