The Manifold Beauty of Genesis One - Gregg Davidson & Kenneth Turner

The first chapter of the Bible's first book lays the foundation for all that follows about who God is and what God is like. Our technology-age fascination with the science of origins, however, can blind us to issues of great importance that don't address our culturally conditioned questions. Instead, Genesis One itself suggests the questions and answers that are most significant to human faith and flourishing. Mike Neglia speaks with Geologist Gregg Davidson and theologian Ken Turner about different ways to shine a spotlight on Genesis One as theologically rich literature first and foremost, exploring the layers of meaning that showcase various aspects of God's character:SongAnalogyPolemicCovenantTempleCalendarLandThis interview invites preachers to cultivate an openness to Scripture's richness and a deeper faith in the Creator.Gregg Davidson (PhD, University of Arizona) is a professor and chair of the School of Geology and Geological Engineering at the University of Mississippi.
