Helping Your Girl Understand the Importance of ‘In the Beginning, God’ 

In this thought-provoking episode of the Raising Godly Girls Podcast, co-hosts Rachael Culpepper and Melissa Bearden kick off a powerful new series centered on the Book of Genesis and its relevance for today’s families. With warmth, curiosity, and a shared love for Scripture, they begin at the very beginning—exploring the creation account and what it reveals about God’s nature, His design, and His enduring truth. 

From imagining the wonder of each day of creation to unpacking why it matters that we teach our girls the truth of Genesis—not just as a story, but as a historical and theological foundation—this conversation invites moms to think deeply about how a Biblical Worldview shapes everyday life. In a culture filled with competing origin stories and growing uncertainty, this episode gently but confidently points families back to the unchanging truth: “In the beginning, God.” 

You’ll hear encouragement to guide your daughter in understanding not just where she comes from, but Who she belongs to. Through the Raising Godly Girls Minute featuring Patti Garibay, listeners are reminded that God is a “full-circle God”—the same God who created the world in Genesis is the One who is making all things new in Revelation. That truth anchors our faith and gives our girls a steady hope, even in a broken world. 

Whether you’re navigating big worldview questions with your daughter or simply looking to deepen your family’s trust in Scripture, this episode equips you with practical encouragement to parent with eternal perspective. You’ll walk away inspired to help your girl see God’s hand in creation, trust His plan, and live with confident hope for what’s to come. 

Two Things to Remember: 

• Teach your girl to think eternally—this world is not all there is, and God’s plan is still unfolding.  

• Encourage her to hope expectantly—God is actively at work, even when we can’t yet see it.
