Part 1: Genesis - 2 Chronicles

Genesis

Genesis is the “book of beginnings.” Creation is the first beginning we encounter, but there are many other beginnings throughout the Book of Genesis. Adam and Eve had a new beginning after the death of Abel. Noah and his family had a new beginning following the flood. Abram had a new beginning when he started for the Promised Land, and he and Sarah have a new beginning with a son in their old age. Joseph has many beginnings, from slavery to leadership, to prison, to the palace. The book of Genesis ends with Joseph’s family having a new beginning in Egypt. As you begin the year, think about the opportunities for beginnings in your life. Allow the reading this week to ignite the beginning of your best year.
