En este sermón de Génesis 18-19, el pastor Mark muestra que la misma depravación que comenzó en Sodoma y Gomorra ha prevalecido a lo largo de la historia del mundo y continúa en la cultura actual. Concluye que Jesús será el Juez final y que es de vital importancia que las personas se alineen con los valores de Jesús en lugar de los del mundo para salvarse del juicio final que los espera.

Este sermón de Génesis 7-8 abarca una de las partes más conocidas del libro, cuando la familia de Noé entra en el arca y tiene lugar el Diluvio. En este sermón, el pastor Mark predica sobre cómo Dios salvó a la familia de Noé y cómo la primera acción de Noé al salir del arca fue construir un altar para adorar a Dios. También cubre las diferentes opiniones sobre el caso de un diluvio global versus uno local, mostrando una vez más que hay muchas cuestiones abiertas en el libro de Génesis que los cristianos pueden debatir, pero, en definitiva, no deben causar división.
En este sermón que cubre una gran parte del texto (Génesis 5:1-7:1), el pastor Mark predica sobre el hecho de que Dios es bueno y la gente es mala, que el progreso humano es externo y no interno, y que una familia llena de fe, aunque sea pecadora, puede ser utilizada poderosamente por Dios.
Después de que Dios llamara a todo “bueno” y “muy bueno” en Génesis 1-2, Adán y Eva toman decisiones en Génesis 3:1-24 que cambiarán para siempre el curso de la humanidad. En este sermón, el pastor Mark nos enseña cómo el infierno vino literalmente a la tierra en forma de serpiente y, debido a las elecciones de Adán y Eva, la creación está ahora maldita. Pero, la buena noticia es que Jesús es el matadragones que gobierna y reina sobre todas las criaturas y la creación antes, ahora y para siempre.
