Episode 205: When it Feels Like the Enemy Wins

Write this Down! with Dot Bowen

Genesis 3 is often seen as the chapter where everything fell apart—but it’s also where God's rescue plan begins. In this final episode of our Genesis 3 series, Dot and Cara unpack the mercy of God, the significance of the Tree of Life, and the spiritual battle that started in Eden but doesn’t end there. Grab your Bible and join us as we wrestle through Scripture, ask hard questions, and are reminded of the hope we have in Jesus.

Scripture Verse: Genesis 3:13-15 (ESV) Then the Lord God said to the woman, “What is this that you have done?” The woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.” The Lord God said to the serpent,

“Because you have done this,
cursed are you above all livestock
and above all beasts of the field;
on your belly you shall go,
and dust you shall eat
all the days of your life.

I will put enmity between you and the woman,
and between your offspring and her offspring;
he shall bruise your head,
and you shall bruise his heel.”
