About this listen
In this episode, we explore the major Christian views on Genesis and creation—from Young Earth Creationism to Theistic Evolution and everything in between. But we don’t stop there. We dive deep into the ancient Hebrew mindset, showing how Genesis 1–2 isn’t primarily a story of a cosmic battle between good and evil, but of God bringing order out of chaos. Comparing Genesis to Ancient Near Eastern myths like the Enuma Elish and the Baal Cycle, we see how the Bible radically redefines what it means for God to create. We also trace the theme of sacred space from Eden to the Tabernacle, to Jesus as the true Temple, and finally to the New Creation. This episode invites you to see the creation account not just as history, but as the beginning of God’s great story to dwell with His people forever.
