 Notes from Anne McMeekin

“After a great start in the Genesis garden, things went off the rails and did not go well for a while after that. When we get to Genesis 12, it’s a new start. God begins a new thing with Abram and Sarai, a promise of a new creation in creation, a “great nation” that will be a blessing. God said, “Go, leave country and family behind,” and so Abram and Sarai went. There appear to have been no “what ifs” or worries. The couple simply went. How far could we go if we went without self-imposed boundaries, with faith in a God who offers the promise of blessing? “

This Sunday we will look at how God’s grace filled love provides a fresh start.
