A Conversation with Dr. John Walton - Genesis 1 and the Origins Debate

  • Summary

  • In this conversation, we discuss Dr. Walton's influential book, "The Lost World of Genesis One." In the book, he argues that Genesis 1, read in its Ancient Near Eastern Context, is not about material origins (how did everyone come to exist from nothing?) but functional origins. Genesis 1 is the story of God's ordering of creation as his temple where, on the seventh day, God comes to rest.
