The Bible has a beginning, and like most beginnings, it helps set up the rest of the story. In the first 11 chapters of the Bible we are told about: the source of all things, why this world is broken, how God intends to fix it, and the role of human beings in His plan. It foreshadows the gospel and the final redemption. As we go through these verses, we will look at how God is preparing us to read the rest of His Word.
