Summary
As the church prepares for Lent, Pastor Hannah invites the congregation to see Genesis 3 not just as an ancient failure, but as a mirror for our own lives. The serpent's temptation begins with a subtle distortion of God's goodness, planting the lie that God cannot be trusted and is holding something back. Adam and Eve grasp for what they already possess—life with God—and shame fractures their intimacy. Yet even in their hiding, God comes walking toward them, asking three gentle, piercing questions: Where are you? Who told you? What have you done? These are not accusations, but invitations.
Lent, then, becomes an opportunity to step out from hiding and return to the God who still comes looking for us. What if we let God's questions lead us into honest repentance—naming the voices we've trusted, the ways we've withdrawn or blamed, the places we've taken rather than received? As we turn back toward God, we rediscover intimacy, freedom, and love that overflows into our relationships and our community. This season is not about shame—it's about coming home.
