Episode 34: Genesis Season Two: Mercy in the Midst of Ruin
🎬 Genesis Season Two: Mercy in the Midst of Ruin Chapters: Genesis 4–12
When worship distorts, death multiplies, ambition grasps—and mercy begins again. Genesis 4–12 traces humanity’s descent (Cain, Enoch, the flood, Babel) and God’s relentless interruptions of mercy that culminate in Abram’s call. Through imagery (fields, arks, towers, rainbows) and symbolism (comparison, rupture, baptism, empire), we read Genesis as story first—naming the ache and noticing how God begins again in the midst of ruin.
We explore cinematic echoes (Whiplash, The Tree of Life, Children of Men, The Road, Interstellar, The Social Network, Arrival, Moana) that mirror Genesis’s arc of rupture and mercy, and we trace God’s posture in the descent: He warns, grieves, preserves, scatters, and calls. Along the way, we see Christ foreshadowed—Abel’s blood to Jesus’ blood, the ark to the cross, the rainbow to resurrection.
