In this lesson, we begin discussing the second C of the Seven Cs of Creation: Corruption. Using Genesis 3, we examine the circumstances of the Fall, the strategy Satan uses against Adam and Eve, and the gospel’s appearance in the midst of the tragedy.
In this lesson, we discuss three common old-earth viewpoints in today’s church: the Gap Theory, Progressive Creation, and Theistic Evolution. We also consider whether the church’s previous error regarding geocentrism/heliocentrism in the early 1600s should affect our attitudes toward the claims of scientists and theologians today.
In this lesson, we examine man’s role as ruler over the earth and its resources. We also consider how Christians should respond today to environmental concerns like Global Warming.
In this lesson, we discuss Genesis’s clear and specific claims about the age of the earth, both in Genesis 1-2 and in the special genealogies of chapters 5 and 11. We also examine radioisotope dating and whether its necessary assumptions fit with a biblical worldview.
In this lesson, we examine the account of man’s and woman’s creation in Genesis 2 and think through the passage’s implications for gender and marriage today. We also discuss whether Genesis 2 contradicts Genesis 1 and whether we should see Genesis 2 as straightforward history or evolutionary allegory.
In this lesson, we discuss what the Bible can tell us about dinosaurs and whether the evolutionary claim that dinosaurs died out before humans existed lines up with Scripture.

In this lesson, we discuss the meaning of the word “day” in Genesis 1, the events of creation days 1-4, and the significance of plant kinds.
In this lesson, we overview the creation sequence presented in Genesis 1 and discuss whether the Bible’s account and evolutionary theory are compatible.
In this lesson, we tie up the ideas about God, the Bible, and the gospel we’ve examined this quarter. We also discuss worldview quiz questions to help assess ourselves as to whether we really trust the Bible to be our ultimate authority or not.
