God's Word for Today: Genesis -- Rooted in Relationship

Each study in the God s Word for Today series provides an in-depth exploration of a book of the Bible. Each session includes: background information on the book of the Bible, its author, audience, occasion, and purpose; learning experiences that promote exciting and challenging discussions; notes for leaders that answer questions, suggest a learning process, and provide additional information; and discussion starters that help participants apply God s Word to their daily lives.

(13 sessions) "Who am I?" People seem to have lost their sense of belonging. They ask, "Who am I? What am I worth? Where am I going?"

We have lost sight of our real roots. Because of sin, people have forgotten who they are in relationship to God, and to one another. This study focuses on: God's restoration through Jesus Christ of the broken relationship that existed between Him and us; our rootedness in Him, which is strengthened as the Holy Spirit works through God's Word; and God's love for us in Christ, which heals broken relationships and provides power to strengthen relationships between us and others.
