Episode 25: Genesis 4 – Worship Distorted, Mercy Preserved

Sin doesn’t just fracture our relationship with God—it distorts our worship, poisons our identity, and ruptures our brotherhood.

In this episode of Cinematic Scripture, we explore Genesis 4 as the first post-Eden descent: two brothers, two offerings, one altar—and the first murder. What begins in devotion ends in violence. But even here, mercy interrupts judgment. We’ll trace the five movements of Genesis 4, unpack its symbolic imagery, and explore how blood, cities, and calling reverberate across Scripture and screen. From Cain’s mark to Seth’s birth, this chapter aches for redemption—and anticipates the mercy of Christ. We'll explore 🎞️ Film echoes—stories where worship fractures, identity collapses, and mercy flickers in the dark.

📖 Featuring insights from Walton, Hamilton, and Wenham
