We trace Genesis 3 to show how the first religion was born from shame and self-reliance, and how the gospel invites us out of hiding. We ask direct questions that help you move from “don’t tell Dad” to “call Dad” and come home to a pursuing Father. • the sword of the Spirit and equipping men for the fight • Genesis 3 as the origin of religion through fig leaves • sin as a terrible trade from intimacy to hiding • rebellion versus religion as two ways to reject God • religion says earn acceptance; gospel says accepted by Christ • God seeks and asks “Where are you?” • Jesus’ rescue mission for the sick and lost • the Father’s heart in the prodigal, the shepherd, and the lost coin • fathers modeling grace that draws children home • a clear invitation to stop running and return to God Before you go, if you want to help equip other men for the fight, share this podcast around and leave us a five star rating and review Support the show Want to connect?
