Partnering with the Creator

Does the creation story in the first chapter of Genesis tell us about how our planet was created, or is it a message of hope declaring that the Creator can take what is worthless, even a life that has encountered the worst circumstances possible, and transform it into a life that is of great worth? This book shows that the first chapter of Genesis emerges from the hopeless experience of Jewish exiles in ancient Babylon and powerfully introduces the most essential message of the Bible: the Creators initiative invites human beings into a life-changing partnership intended to sustain and care for all of the Creators good creation.
