HIStory, part 2: Roots of the Family Tree (Genesis 1-11)

Summary

Paul claims in Ephesians 3 that every family on earth derives its name from the Creator -- if that's true, then the story of Adam, Eve, Cain, Abel, Seth... reaching to Noah and his sons, is all of our story.   Here we learn something of ourselves, and even more of the big story, God's Story, that's being told in the lives of the first people.
