Scripture Reference: Genesis 9:1-17
We live in a world that totters on the brink of collapse, it seems, from a lack of certainty about the world. But God’s covenant (contract) with Noah shows that God’s people can have a radical foundation for our relationship with the world, with justice, and in our own hearts.

Scripture Reference: Genesis 6:1-4
There is a very strange tidbit of a story in Genesis 6:1ff that is so odd that many are tempted to consign the Bible over to an absurd document of superstition. But if you dig into its meaning, you might find it opens us up to an unseen realm where God orders the world.
Sermon Points:
The doctrine of the church unfolds from the very beginning of God’s plan of redemption. Mankind experiences the effects of ongoing sin, presenting itself most clearly in our relationships. The Gospel is here to restore us, not as isolated individuals on our way to heaven when we die, but as a body of people who are united together as God’s people. This class will feature the doctrine of the church and consider the topic of marriage, parenting, & conflict management among church members.

Scripture Reference: Genesis 3:14-24
How do you embrace the effects of evil in life and the dire consequences of sin but look to forgiveness as God’s only remedy. This is something in our culture that we don’t do very well, but if we don’t figure out how to love forgiveness, we’ll splinter into oblivion.
