Handling Scripture - The Narratives of Genesis

In this message, Christy models how to be a faithful reader as she engages the book of Genesis. She uses the illustration of Geology to invite us to see the way Narratives function while you are still living in them. She zooms out on the whole book of Genesis to gain some narrative and literary context, then zooms in on the story of Joseph and his family. She gives some guiding principles for engaging narratives and concludes by inviting us to re-envision our own lives within the context of God's long history of engaging with the lives of real people.
