Klappentext "In the beginning..." These familiar words open the Book of Genesis and give voice to one of the foundational stories of the entire Old Testament. This short-term DISCIPLE Bible study is an invitation to see Genesis not simply as a story about the beginning (Creation), but as a book about beginnings. From Adam and Eve to Noah to Abraham, Genesis recounts God's persistence in "starting over" with the chosen people. It is a message both timeless and timely--"for God's people still seek the assurance that God is always working to make right what went wrong "in the beginning." The Planning Kit consists of one video in both DVD and VHS formats, one Leader's Guide, and one Participant's Book.
