Adam: God's Original Intent for Humanity (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798177644134)

Before Adam ever fell, he was created with a purpose.

Before sin entered the world, humanity had an identity. Before there was brokenness, there was a divine design. Before there was toil, there was meaningful work. Before humanity experienced separation from God, there was fellowship.

ADAM takes the reader back to the beginning to rediscover what God had in mind when He created humanity.

Why did God create man in His image and likeness?

Why was Adam given dominion over creation?

Why was he placed in the garden to cultivate and keep it?

What was the relationship between identity, purpose, work, authority, family, creativity, and stewardship?

And what happened to God's original intention when humanity fell?

John Ouma Odede explores the biblical account of Adam beyond the familiar story of the forbidden fruit. This book examines the original human design revealed in Genesis and follows its story through the fall, redemption, and restoration found in Jesus Christ-the last Adam.

This is a journey from creation to calling, from identity to responsibility, from dominion to stewardship, and from the fall to restoration.

The story of Adam is not merely the story of the first man.

It is a story about humanity.

It is about discovering who we were created to be, why we were placed on the earth, what we were entrusted with, and how God's purposes continue to unfold through generations.

If you have ever asked:

Why am I here?
What was I created to do?
What does it mean to bear God's image?
What is true dominion?
What did humanity lose in the fall?
And what is God restoring through Christ?

Then this book invites you to return to the beginning.

Before the fall, there was a design.
Before the failure, there was a purpose.
Before the brokenness, there was a blueprint.

It is time to rediscover the original intent.
