Saddleback Church Content Development Pastor Jason Wieland is joined by Dr. Carmen Joy Imes to discuss her new book, Being God’s Image: Why Creation Still Matters. What does it mean to be human? This question is something that everybody wrestles with at different points of life. In this conversation, Jason and Dr. Imes discuss what being God’s image means; the connection between creation and vocation; what Genesis, the Wisdom literature, and the New Testament say about this; the power of beloved community, and what we can do to live out a life made in God’s image.   Dr. Carmen Joy Imes (PhD, Wheaton) is associate professor of Old Testament at Biola University. She is the author of Bearing God’s Name: Why Sinai Still Matters, Bearing YHWH’S Name at Sinai, and the editor of Praying the Psalms with Augustine and Friends. For complete show notes, click HE
