In this powerful episode, we trace the sweeping story of Scripture—from humanity’s fall in the Garden of Eden to God’s unfolding plan to redeem and restore us through Jesus Christ. The moment sin entered the world, everything changed. Yet God’s love for humanity never did. Instead of abandoning us, He began a rescue mission that would span generations and reveal the depth of His patience, justice, and compassion.

We explore why the Fall wasn’t just Adam and Eve’s mistake but a reflection of the sin nature we all share. God removed humanity from Eden not out of anger, but out of love—to keep us from being trapped forever in a broken, sinful state. Through the Law given at Mount Sinai and the sacrificial system that followed, God showed us both His holiness and our inability to save ourselves. Our failures reveal a simple truth: we need a Savior.

That Savior is Jesus—God’s perfect and ultimate sacrifice. He lived the life we couldn’t, fulfilled the Law, and opened the only way back to the Father (John 14:6). Salvation, then, isn’t the finish line but the starting point of a lifelong journey of discipleship.

Using biblical narratives and personal illustrations—including a father holding his son through painful but necessary medical treatment—we’re reminded that God often allows temporary pain for our ultimate protection and redemption.

Join us as we walk through the grand story of God’s love for humanity: a story that begins in a garden, runs through a cross, and leads us toward restoration.
