There are a lot of theological words and concepts that get thrown around in churches. Often pastors and leaders just assume that everyone knows what they mean and therefore don’t take the time to explain those concepts and the role they have in faith. This session talks about the Image of God, an idea that’s present in Genesis 1 than helps to explain who we are and the role we have on Earth. 

If you’re interested in the idea of the Image of God and how the context of the Ancient Near East plays a role in our concept of it, check out “The Liberating Image” by J. Richard Middleton. It’s a dense read but beautifully lays out this concept.
