Bible Study Series: Ruined but Not Forsaken
Understanding the Fall of Man in Biblical Theology
What Went Wrong in the Garden? Why It Still Matters Today.
Sin didn’t enter the world by accident—it came through the deliberate rebellion of Adam. In this powerful 5-week series, we’ll journey through the biblical account of the Fall in Genesis 3 and explore how this foundational event shapes our understanding of human nature, sin, salvation, and God’s sovereign grace.
Taught from a theologically Reformed Baptist perspective and using the NASB 2020, each session unpacks deep truths in a clear, accessible way that will strengthen your faith and sharpen your understanding of the gospel.
