Let Us Make a Name for Ourselves

Mon, 31 Aug 2026 04:00:00 -0400

Genesis 11 shows us what can happen when our desire to build, accomplish, and be recognized becomes more important than simply obeying God. The people said, “Let us make us a name,” but in their desire to make a name for themselves, they were moving away from God’s purpose for them. It’s easy for us to do the same thing—to build our careers, our reputation, our families, or our own little kingdom while forgetting who gave us the ability to build in the first place. The question is not whether we will make a name, but whose name are we trying to make great?

God Is Working Through Every Generation

Genesis 10 can seem like a chapter that is simply a long list of names and nations, but there is something important happening beneath the surface. God is showing us how the nations developed and how His purposes continued moving forward through generations of people. In this episode, we’ll slow down and look at why even the names and details we might be tempted to skip are part of God’s bigger story—and why our lives and our generation matter in the story God is continuing to write.

The God Who Keeps His Promises

Thu, 27 Aug 2026 03:00:00 -0400

Genesis 9 brings Noah and his family out of the ark and introduces the covenant God made with Noah. The rainbow became a reminder of God’s promise, but the chapter also reminds us that even after a great deliverance, people are still capable of failure. In this episode, we’ll look at the faithfulness of God, the importance of remembering His promises, and why our confidence should be placed in who God is rather than in our own ability to remain faithful.

Remembered by God

After the flood, Noah and his family were still waiting inside the ark, but Genesis 8 begins with some of the sweetest words in the chapter: “And God remembered Noah.” God had never forgotten him. In this episode, we’ll look at what it means to wait on God when we don’t know what He is doing, and how His timing can be trusted even when the waiting feels long. God had a plan for Noah—and He still has a plan for those who trust Him.

When the Rain Began

Genesis 7 records the beginning of the great flood and the moment when God’s warning became reality. Noah had spent years preparing and obeying God before there was any evidence that the judgment was coming. In this episode, we’ll look at the importance of trusting God before we can see the outcome, the seriousness of God’s judgment, and the safety found in following exactly what God has said.

Finding Grace in a Wicked World

Mon, 24 Aug 2026 01:00:00 -0400

By Genesis 6, the world had become filled with wickedness, yet one man stood out: Noah. While everyone around him was moving farther away from God, Noah found grace and continued walking with Him. In this episode, we’ll look at what it means to stand for God when the world around us is going the opposite direction, and why obedience to God is still worth it—even when nobody else seems to understand.

A Life That Walked With God

Sun, 23 Aug 2026 14:47:22 -0400

Genesis 5 contains a repeated phrase that is impossible to overlook: “and he died.” Generation after generation passed away, reminding us that life is temporary. But in the middle of that repetition, we find something different in Enoch: “Enoch walked with God.” In this episode, we’ll consider what it means to walk with God in a world where our time is limited—and why the greatest thing we can leave behind is not what we accomplished, but how we walked with the Lord.

The Heart Behind the Offering

Sun, 23 Aug 2026 14:47:08 -0400

Genesis 4 introduces us to Cain and Abel and shows us that God is not simply concerned with what we bring Him, but with the heart behind what we bring. Cain’s anger eventually led him down a path of jealousy, bitterness, and murder. In this episode, we’ll look at how sin can grow when we refuse to deal with it, and why we must learn to listen when God warns us before a small problem becomes something much bigger.

When Sin Entered the World

Sun, 23 Aug 2026 14:46:59 -0400

Genesis 3 is where everything changed. Adam and Eve chose to believe a lie instead of trusting the Word of God, and sin entered the world. But even in the middle of judgment, we see the mercy and grace of God. In this episode, we’ll look at how temptation works, what happens when we question God’s Word, and the devastating consequences of sin—but also the hope we find in a God who comes looking for man even after man has turned away from Him.

Made for God: The Purpose of Man

Sun, 23 Aug 2026 14:46:48 -0400

Genesis 2 gives us a closer look at the creation of man and the beautiful purpose God had for him. Adam wasn’t created to simply exist—he was created to work, to care, to walk with God, and to live according to God’s design. In this episode, we’ll look at what this chapter teaches us about our purpose, our relationship with God, and why God’s way is always better than trying to live life according to our own design.

In the Beginning: When God Speaks

Sun, 23 Aug 2026 14:46:29 -0400

In Genesis 1, we are introduced to the God who created everything by His Word. Before there was light, life, or order, there was God—and when God spoke, everything changed. This chapter reminds us that the same God who brought order out of darkness is still able to work in our lives today. As we begin our journey through the Bible, we’ll look at what creation teaches us about God’s power, His purpose, and what it means for us to live under the authority of His Word.
