Genesis: The Power of Story
Summer Days at Wollaston
Come and join a community of theologians and practitioners as we explore the biblical book that has impacted our world probably more profoundly than any other – Genesis.
Discover the ways in which the stories of this extraordinary book shaped the world that Jesus knew, and continue to shape us today.
