Genesis Summary

One Family: Genesis is the story of one family, the family of Abraham. It explains how Abraham was related back to Adam and Eve, the first people God created 19 generations earlier, and then continues the story of his descendants, son Isaac, grandson Jacob and the twelve tribes of Israel.

This focus on lineage has given me new perspective on how important family is – for generations to come. Give your children a strong foundation. Teach them that God has a plan for them, maybe not saving a whole country from famine like Joseph, but a plan to make a difference in this world through love and appreciation of others – and most of all through their children, grandchildren, and all of their descendants.
