The Genesis of Blessing | Current Sermon Series
God creates in order to bless. Join us as we go through the book of Genesis where we will answer the questions: "Who is God? Who is this God who saved Israel from the Egyptians? What is His purpose in creation?" The book of Genesis is critical in helping people challenge the cultural idea that we get to do whatever we want to do. In order to bless, God has authority because He created us.
