The “Pale Blue Dot.” Have you seen the picture? A truly beautiful photograph… It’s amazing to realize how tiny the earth is in comparison with the vastness of our solar system — not to mention the universe! To Dr. Carl Sagan this photograph revealed that humanity, the earth, and life itself are all insignificant given the scale of the cosmos. We’re just a tiny blip on the canvas of nature.

If we have a question about the Bible, the best place to find the answer is the Bible. As Major

Ian Thomas was fond of saying, “The best commentary on the Bible is the Bible!” So what does

the rest of Scripture teach us about Genesis Chapters 1 and 2?

“Who am I? Where did I come from? Where am I going?” From ordinary people to famous philosophers, everyone has wrestled with questions of origin. In fact, every culture, every religion, and every worldview has attempted to answer questions of origin.
