Genesis: back to the start

Genesis is an ancient text with a contemporary message.
It was written in a pre-scientific age for a pre-scientific audience to articulate what many then – and now - instinctively knew.
That we are not here by chance.
There was a time when all that we see did not exist.
Then something happened.
Out of nowhere (ex niho), something, someone, unbelievably powerful and yet wildly creative (the Ultimate Being - God) kicked off a sequential process that resulted in everything that we see - and are - coming into existence.
The story of our ‘being’ is ultimately linked to and dependent on, God’s ‘being’, our story with God’s story.
