There is a God, and You Are Not Him

Today, we describe timeless Christian truths laid out to us in the very first chapter of the bible. Those of all ages, even young children can understand some of the great realities laid out in the bible. For one, there is a God, and God created ex nihilo (out of nothing). He made mankind in his own image, having dominion over the earth and he created them with two genders, male and female. Our culture would war against the bible, even starting in chapter one! Enjoy our conversation about God's holiness and sovereignty on display, even in the very first chapter of the bible

Key Texts: Genesis 1
