Trees tell stories—and in Scripture, those stories tell the story of salvation. From the tree in Eden that marks humanity’s fall, to the tree of the cross where Jesus gave His life, and finally to the tree of life in the restored creation, this sermon traces God’s unfolding story of grace, sacrifice, and hope. Along the way, we are invited to see more clearly the character of a Creator who did not abandon His creation, but entered our world to rescue us. As you listen, consider a personal question: Have you not only heard the story of Jesus, but allowed His sacrifice to transform your life?
