Paperback. What if the most flawed family in the Bible is exactly the point? *Beginnings: Reflections on the Book of Genesis* is a year-by-year journey through the first book of the Bible, drawn from more than a decade of daily Quiet Time writing and a weekly Sunday School class called Flourish. Across seventeen chapters, Eugene Han and Eunmi Kim walk verse by verse through Genesis 1-50, wrestling honestly with its hardest questions: Why does God let Abraham lie - twice - and bless him anyway? Did Jacob actually change after wrestling with God, or did grace simply rest on an unchanged man? Why does Scripture record Simeon and Levi's massacre at Shechem without a word of moral commentary? What does Joseph's strange test of his brothers teach us about forgiveness and repentance? This is not a technical commentary written for seminarians. It is a layman's companion for ordinary believers who want to read Genesis slowly, carefully, and honestly - noticing the same patterns of grace, sovereignty, and human failure that the authors noticed over years of unhurried reading. Eunmi's reflections close out many of the chapters, giving the book a second, often more personal, voice alongside Eugene's. Each chapter includes: - A close, readable walk through that section's text, grounded in careful study but written for everyday readers- Cross-references that trace how a theme in Genesis echoes through the rest of Scripture, from the Psalms to Paul's letters to the words of Christ- Honest engagement with the hard parts - favoritism, deception, violence, and unanswered questions - without flattening them into easy lessons- Reflection and discussion questions, ideal for personal devotion or small-group Bible study Whether you are reading through Genesis for the first time, leading a Bible study, or simply looking for a steady companion to your own daily time in the Word, this book offers seventeen chapters of careful, faithful reflection on the book that begins it all - and a hopeful look ahead to where its story leads next, in Exodus This item is printed on demand.

This is not a technical commentary written for seminarians. It is a layman’s companion for ordinary believers who want to read Genesis slowly, carefully, and honestly — noticing the same patterns of grace, sovereignty, and human failure that the authors noticed over years of unhurried reading. Eunmi’s reflections close out many of the chapters, giving the book a second, often more personal, voice alongside Eugene’s.
Each chapter includes:
- A close, readable walk through that section’s text, grounded in careful study but written for everyday readers
- Cross-references that trace how a theme in Genesis echoes through the rest of Scripture, from the Psalms to Paul’s letters to the words of Christ
- Honest engagement with the hard parts — favoritism, deception, violence, and unanswered questions — without flattening them into easy lessons
- Reflection and discussion questions, ideal for personal devotion or small-group Bible study
Whether you are reading through Genesis for the first time, leading a Bible study, or simply looking for a steady companion to your own daily time in the Word, this book offers seventeen chapters of careful, faithful reflection on the book that begins it all — and a hopeful look ahead to where its story leads next, in Exodus
