Genesis 1: This is My Father's World (Chapter 1-25)

Who am I? Why am I here? Where am I going? There's no better place to look for answers than the book of beginnings.

Genesis 1: This Is My Father's World is a 12-lesson Courageous Living workbook by Wilson Adams covering Genesis 1–25.

How This Study Helps

Questions about origin, purpose, and destiny are at the heart of today's culture wars and of every person's search for meaning. Genesis answers them, but many Christians have never studied it carefully.

This study covers creation, the garden and the fall, Cain and Abel, Noah and the flood, starting over, Abraham's pioneering faith, Melchizedek, running ahead of God with Hagar, Sodom and Gomorrah, and Abraham's test on Mount Moriah. It closes with how Abraham finished strong.
