How can those engaged in ministries of Creation Care find grounding and confidence from the first three chapters of Genesis? What does Genesis teach about our human relationship to the rest of creation? In this webinar, we will explore several of the basic themes and challenges from the creation stories in Genesis chapters 1-3, such as:
• Creation and Sabbath
• Bearing the image of God
• Dominion and Stewardship
• The Tree of Knowledge
Come join us as we explore the challenges and the support we can gain from a deeper understanding of these foundational bible stories.
