Genesis 1-2 | The Generous God | Johnny Kurcina | Sept. 8, 2024

The story of the Bible is of a generous Creator God who fills the creation with his blessing and abundance. God invites us to trust him by receiving, enjoying, and sharing all that he has given us. But we struggle with doubt, buying into the myth of scarcity that pervades every culture. As a result we act out of fear, getting and taking, even hoarding, to protect ourselves. But God wants us to experience the Sabbath mindset of rest and joy in the life he has created and the fullness of life he offers us in his Son Jesus.
