What if Genesis 1 was never meant to explain science? In this episode of Whiskey and the Writings, Joe Oliver invites the spiritually curious, skeptics, and those rethinking their faith to explore a different side of the creation story—one that focuses on meaning and purpose rather than scientific explanation. Instead of forcing modern questions onto an ancient text, we’ll dive into what Genesis 1 actually offers: a vision of God’s good creation, the home He made for humanity, and the deep purpose He intended for us. Drawing from scholars like John Walton, N.T. Wright, and Tim Mackey, Joe explores how understanding Genesis as a functional creation narrative—not a material one—can reshape your view of the Bible, God, and your place in the world.
