Genesis 4-5

Last week in Genesis Chapter 3 we met our Adversary - Satan - through the narrative, and Steve unpacked for us how Satan uses doubt about the goodness of God’s gifts, and doubt of our own goodness to undermine our trust in God.

This weekend we are going to look at the original sin of our adversary - pride - and how Chapter 4 of Genesis teaches us to see pride and ultimately resist it’s pull. What is pride? How can we recognize it in ourselves? And most importantly, what is God’s plan to deal with the sin of pride, both within us and within the world?
