## Resource

What’s really wrong with the world? It’s not just broken systems, natural disasters, or bad circumstances. The problem runs deeper. From Genesis 3, we see the truth clearly: the fundamental issue is sin in the human heart. In this episode, we unpack the devastating results of the fall: Information – the awareness that something is wrong Expiration – spiritual death and separation from God Separation – broken fellowship with God and others Imputation – Adam’s sin counted as ours Fabrication – the “fig leaf life” of hiding, covering, and self-deception Ever since the garden, humanity has been sewing fig leaves—trying to cover sin, silence shame, and avoid God. But it doesn’t work. You can hide from others. You can even fool yourself. But you cannot hide from God. The good news? There are only two options: Keep hiding… or run to Christ. 🎙️ Listen now and consider: Are you living behind fig leaves—or have you come out into the light?
