From the very beginning, God chose a garden as the place where life would begin—a space full of beauty, purpose, and His presence. Adam and Eve had everything they needed, and most importantly, they walked closely with God. But sin disrupted that perfection, bringing brokenness not only to humanity but to all of creation. Still, the story doesn’t end in ruin. Though sin damages every “garden” it touches, God—the true Gardener—never abandons His creation. Even in the midst of our mess, He is at work, restoring, redeeming, and bringing life again.

If Life Were a Garden

The Garden of Eden - First Life

Genesis 2:4-15

1. Sin is greedy.

The greed of sin comes down to pride.

2. Sin is contagious.

Sin affects everyone and everything.

3. Sin is separation.

Separation from God is death.
