Life Issues in Genesis 9

In this episode of Life Issues in Genesis, we are diving into Genesis 9 when Noah and his family are finally able to get off the ark. Topics discussed in this episode include: Why does God permit eating animals but forbid consuming blood? What does it mean that taking a human life is an affront to God? How does capital punishment uphold the sanctity of life? What is the significance of the rainbow and God's promise? Is God distant or is He near and actively intervening in our lives? What happened when Noah got drunk, and what do we learn from his sons' different responses? How should we treat those dealing with trauma and shame? What does Baptism have to do with Noah and with us? Why can't we walk the Christian life alone? What is the key difference between enabling sin and covering sin? How does Jesus show us what real love looks like? And more! Contributor Michelle Bauman is the Director of Y4Life. Contributor Rev.
