E7 - Genesis 3 - More Than Naked

What is the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil? What humans gain and lose from eating from it. 

E6 - Genesis 3 - Two Truths and a Lie

In this first of three episodes on Genesis 3, we look at the crafty serpent and breakdown his conversation at the tree with the humans. The most effective lies are the ones concealed in truth. 

E5 - Genesis 2 - When God Takes Sides

Continuing on in Genesis 2, God sees that Adam doesn't need to be alone and decides to take action. In this episode, Corey looks at two questions: Who is this newcomer intended to be, and how does the way God creates her help our understanding of who she is, and her relationship to God and Adam?
