Dive in with us each week as we explore the book of beginnings

As we go through the book of Genesis as a congregation we wanted to provide you with an opportunity to not only read through the entire book but dive into the different theological and spiritual themes found in one of the most beautiful books in the Bible. Every week we have some readings you can walk through, some short videos to interact with and a practice to participate in that will form you spiritually and connect you to the Father.

Week 1 July 19th-July 26th

Week 2 July 27th-August 2nd 

Sabbath 

  • Practice: Sabbath – Take either a whole day or a portion of a day to Sabbath. No need to get legalistic. Do some things that you enjoy. Pray. Read. Relax.
