In “Tree of Life”, Peter Burrows takes listeners on a journey from Eden to Calvary, revealing how God’s plan for restoration began in Genesis and was fulfilled through the cross. Drawing from Genesis 2–3, Galatians 5, and other key passages, Burrows shows how sin separated humanity from God — but through Jesus, the Tree of Life was made available again.
The sermon traces three key trees: the Tree of Life in Eden (life lost), the Tree of Knowledge (sin and separation), and the Cross (life restored). Through Christ’s obedience, surrender, and victory, believers are invited into new life and eternal fellowship with God. The message closes with a call to personal surrender at the foot of the cross, embracing transformation by the Holy Spirit’s fruits — love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.
