Beyond Sundays

Who Was Cain Afraid Of?


Listen Later

Most of us were introduced to Genesis in Sunday School—simple stories, clear answers, and tidy conclusions. But when you actually sit down and read Genesis for yourself, it’s anything but simple.

In this episode of Beyond Sundays, we wrestle with the gap between the “Sunday School version” of Genesis and the story Scripture actually tells. We explore unsettling questions surrounding Cain, the land of Nod, and why the text seems to assume more people than we remember being taught about. Along the way, we ask whether faith was ever meant to stop growing at a child’s reading level.

This isn’t about tearing down Scripture—it’s about taking it seriously enough to read it closely, honestly, and without fear.

Because maybe faith doesn’t break when the answers get harder…
Maybe it deepens.
