The Bible tells us that we are created in the image of God - but as male and female, how is the image of God expressed in our genders? Is it scriptural to identify femininity in the nature of God? Have we created an image of God built on patriarchy? Is the church too feminine …and how does all this impact your relationship with God? On this episode of the Woman Alive podcast, Tola-Doll Fisher and her guests discuss God, femininity and the Church.
