And to the man God said, “Because you have eaten of the tree about which I commanded you, cursed is the ground because of you; in toil you shall eat of it all the days of your life; thorns and thistles it shall bring forth for you; and you shall eat the plants of the field. By the sweat of your face you shall eat bread until you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken; you are dust, and to dust you shall return.”
from Genesis 1-3
Let’s begin at the beginning. In the beginning, God creates the heavens and the earth, and makes a garden paradise for the first humans to live in. But the humans disobey the one rule God has put in place for them. As a result, they’re forced to leave the garden and scratch out a living in the harsh soil of the world beyond. Join us on Sunday as Seminary Intern Logan Bennett leads us into our “Come to the Garden” Lenten series by looking at that very first garden, what we had there, what we lost . . . and how we can get back.
