The Lost World of the Bible: Origins | The Mark of Cain

Understanding Cain and Abel's story reveals our deep-seated human struggles with comparison, accountability, and the choices that shape us. Cain’s actions show how sin has evolved from an external influence to an internal force that wreaks havoc in our lives and the world. The Mark of Cain leaves us asking the question, can God do anything about the desires we give into that make a mess of our lives and the world?Series Overview: If you grew up in the United States, you were likely handed a few Bible stories as a child — Adam and Eve, Noah and a boatload of animals, a tower of Babel stretching to the sky. The stories were filled with memorable characters and vivid scenes. In many cases, even though we grew up, our understanding of these ancient stories never did. But what if we reexamined them as adults? What lessons could be unlocked? What depths would we discover?

The Lost World of the Bible: Origins | Adam, Eve, and Chaos

Adam and Eve were perhaps real people, but they were far more than that. They serve as archetypes for us: Their failure is our failure, and there are consequences for our sin and brokenness. But God is not content to allow our story to end in tragedy. Rather, from the very beginning, he goes about setting a plan in place to redeem who we are and restore what we've broken.Series Overview: If you grew up in the United States, you were likely handed a few Bible stories as a child — Adam and Eve, Noah and a boatload of animals, a tower of Babel stretching to the sky.
