Garden of Eden

Garden of Eden

    Apr 03, 2022

    Passage: Genesis 1:1-3:24

    Preacher: Dave Proulx

    Series: God of the Garden

    Category: Salvation, Sin

    Summary:

    Even though the weather hasn't always let us know it, as of March 20th, we officially entered the season of Spring. Buds are starting to appear on trees, birds are starting to make their presence known again, and for many, people are starting to plan their Spring garden. If you think about it, gardening is the first job God gave humankind. He placed Adam and Eve in the perfect Garden. But even in perfection, creation still needed to be subdued, it sill needed to be cultivated, it still needed to be...gardened. I wonder what that must have been like? To garden in the Garden of Eden? While we can’t go back to find out, as we prepare for Easter this year, I was struck by the idea that gardens seem to play a significant role in the Passion account and the Easter story. But why? Is there really any significance to it? Why would so many critical events in the Gospel account take place in gardens? I think God may be wanting us to see something bigger that we may have missed.
