In Genesis 3, after Adam and Eve’s disobedience, their eyes opened to nakedness and they felt shame and hid. Dr. Bryan Stensaas shows the real issue wasn’t nakedness (a symptom), but a heart choosing independence from God. Adam deflected, blamed, and never confessed. He focused on the surface, not the root (disobedience). God initiated restoration, calling out “Where art thou?” despite the slap in His face. God’s character shines: He seeks the lost, loves unconditionally, offers mercy, and demands heart obedience. Build your life on this foundation: deal with the heart, not just symptoms.
