About this episode

In this Bible Story, Eve is convinced to eat from the forbidden tree and then both Adam and Eve are banished from the garden. This story is inspired by Genesis 2:25 - 3:24. Go to BibleinaYear.com and learn the Bible in a year.

Today's Bible verse is from Genesis 3:5 the King James Version.

Episode 3: When God placed Adam in the Garden of Eden, He told Adam that he could eat from any tree of the Garden…that is any tree except the Tree of The Knowledge of Good and Evil. For God knows what’s best, and He wanted to give Adam and Eve a chance to choose freely either to trust in Him, and what He says - coming to Him for knowledge and wisdom - or to trust in their own power, and try to seize wisdom on their own terms. Listen as we see Adam face the consequences of his choice and reflect on how each one of us still face this choice today.
