Why You Should Stop Skipping Genealogies |(Genesis 5 Explained)

Описание: Even after the fall, God’s favor, presence, and purpose remained.
In this Bible study of Genesis 5, we slow down and look at what most people skip—genealogies—and discover how grace, mercy, blessing, and fellowship with God continued even after sin entered the world.

In this episode, I introduce a new teaching segment called The Bible Literacy Moment, where we pause to examine the context, structure, and storytelling of Scripture—details that are often overlooked but essential for truly understanding who God is. Together, we explore what genealogies are, what they aren’t, and why they matter, revealing a God who stayed involved, faithful, and relational after the fall.

Genesis 5 reminds us that failure didn’t end the story. God continued to bless, sustain, and walk with humanity. And if that was true then, it’s still true now.

If you want to grow in how you read, understand, and engage Scripture—this episode is for you.

Don’t rush past the parts of Scripture that feel difficult or unfamiliar. Slow down. Wrestle with the text. Ask what it reveals about God’s character. There is favor after the fall—and God is still inviting you to walk with Him.
