50: The Story of Scripture – Genesis 1-3

What is the point of Genesis? What questions should we ask and how does that affect how we read and apply this foundational book of the Bible?

In this episode of the Bible Reading Recap, the Story of Scripture begins with the Pattern of the Kingdom of God in Genesis 1 and 2: God’s people in his place, with his presence.

Ted Ryskoski, Lance Lawson, and Rachel Chester discuss Genesis 1-3. How to read, study, and apply these chapters that are the background and foundation of the Bible Reading Plan in 2025.
