Nikki joins Our Story to talk about Genesis 3 provides the paradigm of see, desire, take provides an understanding sin throughout the whole Bible. Hunter and Nikki discuss the unexpected ways that they’ve seen this paradigm contribute todamage in their own lives and in the lives of those in our Bible.

They talk about how Genesis 3 is darker, trippier, and frankly more devastating than we give it credit for, how nothing in creation is left untouched because of death, how land factors into Cain’s decision to murder his brother, the gift of life thatJesus gives us, and the role that honesty plays in our sin. Hunter and Nikki also discuss optometry, the “Eden” name of the fruit in Genesis 3, and some sad stuff.
