In this episode of Making Great Saints, Dr. Michael Fonseca begins his series on the Story of Salvation within the context of God's love and enduring mercy. He starts by explaining Genesis 1 and 2 and contrasts them with other creation myths. He illustrates in more detail how God created man in His image and likeness and how in the beginning, Adam and Eve lived in a harmonious relationship with God, themselves, each other, and all of creation. God invites us into this perfect and harmonious relationship with Him as well. Dr. Fonseca ends with a message of hope, that even for us sinners, God shows us, through Jesus, how He intends to restore our relationship with Him to the same perfect and harmonious relationship Adam and Eve enjoyed with Him in the beginning...
