Genesis 6:1

Our culture talks about a dream job or a dream house—but what about a dream family? Not a perfect family, but one that learns, over time, to love and fear God by obeying Him and serving others. That kind of family doesn’t happen overnight, but we pray this plan ignites a spark as you read about three Old Testament men who faithfully served God and led their families with intentionality, forgiveness, and obedience.

This wasn’t part of the plan. The story wasn’t supposed to go this way. I didn’t sign up for this. If you’ve ever had these thoughts, chances are that your story has shifted in some unexpected way. This five-day devotional by Sarah Frazer looks at Moses’ story to help you discover how God is working in the twists and turns in your story.

In this five day plan, we walk through Genesis 6 to 11 and watch the world unravel because of human sin, yet also see God’s surprising mercy at every turn. From the flood and God’s covenant with Noah to the rebellion at Babel, these chapters show a God who judges evil but refuses to abandon his creation. If you want greater clarity as you read Scripture, this plan will help you understand how these stories prepare us for Jesus, the one who carries our judgment and gathers the nations by his grace.

What does God teach us about Himself through the wonders of creation and the early narratives of His people? In this six-session devotional series, pastor Charlie Dates offers a big-picture view of the foundational book of Genesis, exploring the splendor of creation and the significance of God’s work in the lives of flawed yet faithful men and women.
