Acclaimed television journalist Bill Moyers, along with Alfre
Woodard and Mandy Patinkin, brings together some of the world's liveliest minds. Well-known theologians, composers, writers and artists such as Mary Gordon, Lewis Smedes, Renita Weems, Elaine Pagels, Walter Brueggemann and many others join them for spirited round-table discussions of the ageless stories from the Bible's first book. For well over two thousand years, the stories found in the book of Genesis have inspired people of all faiths, providing them with enduring values. Today, these Genesis stories will speak to us about the crisis we face in families and in our world, as well as the age-old questions that continue to concern us: temptation and transgression, sacrifice and exile, forgiveness and redemption.
