Genesis (Joy of Living Bible Studies)

The Joy of Living study on Genesis is a 28-lesson series that contains both commentary and daily study questions. Genesis, the first book of the Old Testament, is the book of beginnings. It tells us about God's creation of the heavens and the earth, and of all that is on the earth, including human beings, made in God's image. We also learn about the beginnings of sin and redemption, of society and civilization, and of marriage and family. We'll learn about Adam and Eve, Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Joseph, seeing both their faith and their failures, and seeing God's hand on their lives. The book of Genesis is the foundation for understanding the rest of the Bible, and understanding God's plan for our lives today.

Joy of Living courses are suitable for both formal and informal meetings, as well as for personal study. Each lesson contains a commentary and a week s worth of personal application and study questions, leading readers to discover fresh insights into God s Word. Historical background and maps are included.
