Being God's Image, Part 2

18m · Published 21 Sep 09:00

Why is this concept of Being God’s Image a challenging concept to wholeheartedly believe not only about yourself but also other people. This is not really the messaging from society, right? But can you imagine if the modern church REALLY lived into this? How would this transform how we treated others, how we understand God, and what we think about beauty? Dr. Carmen Imes takes us through some significant themes of identity from her newest book.

27m · Published 07 Sep 09:00

Technology can be an amazing and helpful tool. It can also get in the way of how we learn if we do not pay attention. Today I am joined by two creative entrepreneurs from Basil Technology.
