Book Cover & Preview Text
In looking at the verse above, I see that it is plural. God says, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness.” We are made in the image of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. We serve a Triune God, and we are triune images of that God.

About the Book
The book of Genesis is one of the most important books in the Old Testament. Every major doctrine in the Bible is introduced in the first three chapters. In In the Beginning, author Tommie McBrayer shares insights about these pivotal chapters.
She tells how one cannot study Genesis without being awed by God’s amazing power and by his love and care for the creatures he created, including humans. She illustrates his provision and protection in every chapter, but most of all, she calls attention to his eternal plan for humanity’s salvation.
Praise for In the Beginning
“For Christians, the first few chapters of the Book of Genesis are fascinating. They pique our curiosity and lead us to wonder about God, His creation, and how everything began. This book, written by my close friend, Tommie McBrayer, is an invaluable resource to help answer some of the questions we ask about Genesis 1-3. Rather than rely solely on Bible commentaries, Tommie uses the Bible to interpret itself when it come to the Genesis account of creation. Her approach is Biblically sound and rich in historical Christian theology. This book will be a great resource for your study of Genesis.”
