Nouns, Adjectives, and VERBS | Imago Dei Part 8
Monday Oct 27, 2025
Monday Oct 27, 2025
In the poetic beginning of the Bible, humans are said to be 'made in the image of God' - the IMAGO DEI. What does that mean? Why is that significant? How does that impact what it means to be human?
Maybe...If we understand the characteristics of God, we will have a better understanding of who we are supposed to be.
Maybe...If we understand how God has shown up in the world, we will have a better understanding of how we are to show up in the world.
Maybe...If we (in a similar capacity to Moses in Exodus 33) see where God has been, we will have a better understanding of where we should be going.

The story of Job is a hard story about suffering and loss. It's also about Job's relationship with God. Is God transactional - do good and good things happen, do evil and bad things happen? Or, is God something more? And if God is something more, what does that mean for us - as image bearers of the Divine?
If you want to dive into this story more, check-out the podcast, The Bible for Normal People. Pete Enns does a deep dive into the story of Job that was very insightful and helped frame the trajectory of this message. Find it HERE (it's episode "[BIBLE] Episode 298: Pete Enns - Pete Ruins Job (REISSUE)").

Adventures in Missing the Point | The Parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus
Tuesday Aug 26, 2025
Tuesday Aug 26, 2025
Jesus spent most of his time teaching people about God’s Kingdom (or Kin-dom), and used this unique teaching tool – parables – to engage people. They are creative and thought-provoking, relevant and insightful. Jesus also used these stories to teach people about the values of this new way of love and justice…this counter-cultural way of being human.
AND…they are more applicable to our context than we could ever imagine!
