Are we justified before God by faith or works? That’s the important discussion we’ll have as we walk through Genesis 22. Join us as Abraham willingly follows the command to sacrifice his son, Isaac, and God ultimately stops Him. Rich with symbolism that points to Jesus, you won’t want to miss this study.

Abraham has come home. He’s gone south for the last time, now he’s living in the land of promise, and God is ready to fulfill His promise of a son—when Abraham is 100 years old! Pull up a chair at Abraham’s celebratory feast and witness as Ishmael begins to mock Isaac. Together we’ll see how these events are full of symbolism for us today.

Sodom and Gomorrah are on the verge of destruction. At the prompting of angels, Lot grabs his family and runs. When his wife looks back to gaze upon all she is losing, she instantly turns into a pillar of salt. What happens next? Join as Dr. McGee guides us through another great study in the Old Testament book of Genesis.

As God reaffirms His covenant with Abraham, He tells Abraham about the coming destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah. Abraham, worried about his nephew, Lot, inquires about whom God will save. Travel with us as we see Abraham entertain angels without even knowing it and find Lot’s well-watered plain isn’t all he hoped it would be.

Throughout Genesis we see over and over that when God makes a promise, He sticks to it. In this study, we’re reminded of the details surrounding His covenant with Abraham, see Abraham plead on Ishmael’s (his illegitimate son) behalf, and hear God promise to bless Ishmael and give him a multitude of descendants.

Just when things look impossible, God makes a way. That’s what we’ll see in this study of Genesis. Learn more about Abraham’s story of disobedience (and the birth of his illegitimate child, Ishmael) and God’s faithfulness in giving Him a son through Sarah when he’s 100 years old.

Grace comes through faith. That’s the important message we’ll hear from Dr. McGee as we make our way through the pages of Genesis and see that even though God confirms His covenant to Abraham, Sarah and Abraham lose faith and choose Hagar to bear a child.

The Bible Bus is headed to what may seem like the wild west. In this study, we’ll witness a kidnapping (of Lot), a chase through the wilderness, and meet a stranger who comes out of nowhere to serve the good guys bread and wine. (And later? We find out that stranger is Jesus!) Want to know more? Hop aboard.

You can never be too far gone to come back to God. That’s what we’ll find out as we continue to travel in footsteps of Abraham (Abram). Together we’ll see the undoing of his relationship with Lot and learn how to trust God in difficult circumstances.

Our study in Genesis now shifts from events to people. Hop aboard the Bible Bus as we’re introduced to Abraham and learn that even though he was a man of great faith, he also made some fairly big mistakes.

What happens when mankind rejects God and focuses all of its attention on itself? That’s what we’ll find out as we learn about how the Tower of Babel was used to worship the sun, moon, and stars—not to glorify God—and how in return God confounded their language and scattered them across the face of the earth.

Noah has died, but his family multiplies. Join Dr. McGee in Genesis 10 as we hear about the genealogies and families who began the nations of the world.

The flood is over and Noah is instructed to replenish the earth. Join as we learn about God’s covenant with Noah, His instructions on setting up a government for man, and ultimately about the curse placed on Canaan because of the sin of Noah and his sons.

The rain has stopped, but how do Noah and his family know when it’s safe to leave the ark? Find out as our study of Genesis continues. Together we’ll see Noah return to dry land, build an altar, and offer a sacrifice that pleases God.

The story of the flood, often reserved for children’s Sunday School, is filled with deep spiritual significance. Follow along as Dr. McGee takes us through God’s reasons for the flood, why He chose to save Noah, and the importance of this event for us today.

Our journey through Genesis reveals conditions on the earth are evil and spiritual warfare is rampant. Man’s wickedness is great, and God is sorry He made man. The Bible Bus is about to go down a steep hill, so hang on.

Cain is angry with Abel. So angry, he commits the first murder in history. This sin leads to another and then another with more murder, violence, vengeance, and polygamy that spread like wildfire in the ancient world. Where will it end? Hop aboard the Bible Bus and find out.

Adam and Eve have turned from God and now God must respond. Our study of Genesis continues as God judges the serpent, the battle of good and evil begins, God gives us the first prophecy about the coming of the Messiah, and we meet Adam and Eve’s children, Cain and Abel.

In Genesis 1 and 2 we learned about man walking with God in a garden and a beautiful marriage between a husband and a wife. Then, in chapter four we’ll learn about jealousy, anger, murder, lying, wickedness, rebellion, and worst of all, a broken relationship with God. What happens in between? Travel with us through chapter 3, as Adam and Eve meet a serpent and, through their disobedience to God, e...

As our study of Genesis continues, we’re back in the garden of Eden where we see God “breathe” life into Adam, learn about the tree of good and evil, and witness as woman is created from Adam’s rib.

It only took a few words to tell us everything God wanted us to know about the creation of the universe . . . but when it came to man, God gave more details. Find out what it means that man was created in God’s image and what God intended for man from the very beginning.

When God made the heavens and the earth, were the days of creation a literal 24 hours or do they represent a longer period of time? That’s what Dr. McGee covers in this study. Hop aboard the Bible Bus as we witness the earth and everything around and in it be formed out of nothing.

Why did God create the universe? In this study, Dr. McGee gives us three excellent reasons and continues to look at the problems with the theory of evolution.

How did the world begin? Who or what brought it into existence? What really happened? Science and religion have come to some amazing and curious conclusions about the origins of the universe. Join Dr. McGee as he reviews some of these theories in light of Scripture.

All aboard! The Bible Bus embarks on an exciting journey through God’s entire Word, beginning in Genesis, the book of firsts. Join as we get a quick overview of families in early history and hear about their covenant with God, the altar that is built, and judgments upon their sin.
