Corner Pillars

No one likes a "fake"--but how do we go from "fake it 'til you make it" to authentic maturity in Christ? We will explore the contours of authentic growth in our identity as image bearers. This episode wraps up our season of reflecting on the Imago Dei and our part in holistic disciple-making. We're glad you have joined us!

Our primary attachments form our expectations for relationships. These paradigms are the very structures through which we related to God and others in the Christian life. How does God redeem areas of brokenness in these structures? How can being a disciple-maker be part of God's process to restore and reorient His children back to wholeness? Find out on this episode how important attachment is to discipleship.

This season we have been discussing what it means to be a holistic disciple of Jesus--and how to come alongside others in their spiritual journey as well. This episode will reinforce the idea that we are being restored into our original design--image bearers of the Triune God of the Bible. Join us as we envision key dynamics in this process of transformation.

When God created the world and everything in it, He said it was all good--except for one thing. The one thing that was not good was human isolation. It was not good for Adam to be alone. God created humans to be in relationship with each other. Join us as we discuss how others are part of God's design for restoring the Imago Dei in us.

What are the things that run contrary to bearing God's image? We discuss sins of self in this episode, so that as we become more aware of subtle sins, we can repent and ask God to enable us to reflect Him more fully.

This episode continues the discussion of how to faithfully reflect God's value system when we encounter relational conflict.

Reflecting God's heart gets complicated when we encounter conflict. While conflict is inevitable, we can work towards being ministers of reconciliation as we learn to lean into God's value system. Listen in as we discuss how to image God in Conflict.

Disciple-making is a restorative process. One of the obstacles to this process is a soul shaped by shame. This episode, we will unpack the effects of shame and how to overcome its detrimental tendencies.

As we seek to fulfill the Great Commission by making disciples, it's helpful to realize that there are pitfalls to avoid. In this episode of "Fragmented Disciple-making," the Corner Pillars' team looks at incomplete strategies that fall short of restoring the image-bearing capacity of humans. We hope that by addressing these pitfalls head-on, we can move toward more holistic dynamics of walking with people on their spiritual journey.

The magnitude of Christ's life on earth has yet to be explored fully. We will be looking at one angle of this mystery by reflecting on Jesus as the perfect image bearer of the Father. As we seek to know more of his life in Scripture with the intent to abide in him and relate to him, we can be shaped by his example of finding life in connection with the Father. The restoration of the "imago dei" comes through relationship.
