Far From Eden - Mike Phillips | Genesis 3:1-24
In this sermon, Mike Phillips opens Genesis 3 and helps us understand what has gone wrong with the world. The beauty and goodness of creation in Genesis 1-2 are shattered as humanity turns away from God—choosing distrust over trust, and rebellion over obedience.
The result is a world marked by fear, blame, suffering, and death—a world we recognise all too well.
This message asks a confronting question:
How did we get from Eden to the broken world we live in today?
You’ll be encouraged to:
• See how sin begins with doubting God’s goodness
• Understand the deep consequences of turning from God
• Recognise our own place in the story of rebellion
• Discover the first glimpse of hope in God’s promise to restore
Even in this darkest chapter, God has not abandoned His world. Genesis 3 points us toward a coming rescuer - and a future where all that is broken will be made new.
