"In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth." Perhaps the most familiar and recognizable words from scripture, the first verses of Genesis 1 tell a story about creation. Or do they? In this sermon, Pastor Will travels back in time to show that Genesis 1 is about the Creator more than the creation. The initial audience would have heard Genesis 1 as an answer to their questions about God primarily, not as a scientific explanation of creation. We would do well to hear these words the same way today.
