from the reading plan

After reading today’s passages, use the guiding content below to help you reflect, respond, and engage with one another.

In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth and called it good. After the fall, creation began to decay and experience futility. In the end, the heavens and earth are made new, and humanity dwells with God in a secure, flourishing garden city. 

In prayer and in the comments, reflect on the images from today’s passages that were familiar to you. What images point to the different or “beyond” nature of what’s to come?
