Listen "Sunday Sermon: Nearer Than Breath"

Episode Synopsis

This morning, we'll consider the first mention of the Spirit of God as we explore together the Creation narrative in Genesis 2. God, after forming the heavens and the earth, forms human beings from the dust of the ground and then breathes the breath of life into Adam, allowing him to become a living being. As we sit with this imagery, we'll meditate on how the breath of God offers us constancy, intimacy, and reminds us of our utter dependence on our God, who is nearer than breath.

Sermon on Genesis 2:4-8, delivered by the Reverend Joshua H. Narcisse on June 29th, 2025.
