Genesis 1 - 3

from The Word Made Human · host The Sacred Humanist

In this episode, we’re turning to the opening chapters of Genesis, the creation myths in chapters 1 through 3. These are some of the most familiar words in the Bible, yet when read as myth rather than history, they take on a deeper meaning. Genesis doesn’t give us science; it gives us wisdom. It doesn’t tell us how the universe began; it tells us what it means to be human, to long for connection, to awaken to responsibility, to live between innocence and awareness.
