S2E6: Rest Assured, What The Creation Story was Intended To Reveal About God

from Theologically Fashioned · host Monica Ritchie

In this episode of Theologically Fashioned, I talk with author and Bible teacher, Rachel Booth Smith about her book Rest Assured, What the Creation Story was Intended to Reveal About Trusting God. This is not a conversation about science. Instead, Rachel asks us to set that aside and become "holy eavesdroppers" as we listen to the creation narrative of Genesis chapter One as an Ancient Near Eastern person would have. Some parts would have been highly offense, while other parts would make ears perk up or hearts lean in. Rachel is full of God's wisdom and a joy to learn from. Her book and additional resources are linked below. Website: Rachel Booth Smith IG: Rachel Booth Smith Book: Rest Assured
