Genesis 6: Noah found favor

Read Genesis 6:1-22 before you meet.

In a few lines

The first heart the Bible mentions is full of evil, and the second is God's, grieving. God will end a world people had already ruined, but first he promises his covenant, the Bible's first use of the word, to Noah, who found favor in his eyes.

The verse to carry

“But Noah found favor in the LORD’s eyes.”

Genesis 6:8

To talk about

  1. 1. Before God speaks of the flood, the text says he grieved in his heart. How does it change things to know God grieves, not only judges?

  2. 2. Noah did all that God commanded, before any rain fell. What makes it hard to obey when you can't yet see why?

  3. 3. "They saw… and they took any that they wanted." Where does our culture tell you to take whatever looks good?
