In the Image of God

Feb 07, 2021 | Pastor Jake Waybright

God's Image & Creation

Embracing our identity as people created in the Image of God doesn't just help us see ourselves and others with dignity, it also helps us see our place in the universe and on our planet. Combining insights from modern science, ancient Hebrew poetry, and Christian tradition we can see our place in the universe and our role in loving and caring for our planet and environment as God does.

Sometimes it seems like the world gives us every reason to tear each other apart and dehumanize people who are not like us.  On a personal level, sometimes it’s easy to look around and find all the reasons that we are not enough in who we are.  What’s missing is what we hold in common: the recognition of the image of God in the face of the other AND in the face in the mirror.  Recognizing the image of God in others is foundational to convictions like God’s love, equality, human dignity, and justice.   Recognizing the image of God in ourselves firmly grounds our own sense of worth, potential, purpose, and calling.  Let’s see ourselves as God sees us as we take a transformational look at some of our most pressing challenges from the vital Biblical idea that we are all created in the image of God.
