  WELCOME Back from Turkey Run, we are full steam ahead into the fall: the fall season and the story of humanity’s fall from perfection. We are preaching through Genesis, the first book in the Bible, verse by verse and chapter by chapter. God created the heavens and the earth in Chapter 1. He rested at the beginning of Chapter 2. Then, in verse 4, the book pivots to revisit the creation of humanity. God made the first man and placed him in the Garden of Eden. He gave him the charge to guard and keep it. It was filled with food, water, and animals, but lacked one thing: a helper fit for the enjoyment of being fruitful, multiplying, and filling the earth. God had Adam rest, removed a rib, and created the first woman, Eve. It was a picture-perfect wedding. It was just them, naked and unashamed. Chapter 3 comes along, and we learn that a talking serpent questions God’s character in a conversation with Eve.
