In this second message of the From the Start: A Genesis Series, Pastor Drew Webb explores Genesis 1:1-13 and reveals the timeless truth of God’s creation. Far from being just an ancient story, Genesis was written in the context of competing cultural myths, and it boldly declares the sovereignty of the one true God. Pastor Webb highlights how Genesis is not about technical science but about life’s greatest questions—origins, purpose, morality, and destiny.
This sermon focuses on the first three days of creation: light, sky, and land. Each act of creation demonstrates God’s intentional design and His power to bring order out of chaos. Pastor Webb shows how Christ Himself was present at creation, affirming that all things were made through Him and for Him. God is not a distant force but a Creator who shapes with purpose and calls His work good.
The message reminds us that the God who created the universe is the same God who provides for His people today. He is sovereign over the darkness, over the waters, and over the land that sustains life. Unlike the violent myths of the ancient world, the Genesis account reveals a God of peace who creates with intentionality and care. As we reflect on His work, we are invited to trust Him fully and live in the light of His creative goodness.
