IMAGE OF GOD
A Holy Design for Human Dignity
Everyone is created in the image of God and worthy of love and respect, yet we sometimes struggle to see others in this way.
The Image of God, one of three studies from the Deep Dive series, is an 8-week group-discipleship experience that unveils the beautiful, biblical understanding of human life, dignity, and worth, rooted in God's original and beautiful design for His beloved people.
What You’ll Gain from The Image of God
This 8-week journey helps members discover what it truly means to be created in the image of God and how that identity shapes every part of life. Through Scripture, prayer, and real-life application, participants will learn to see themselves and others through God’s perspective.
​
Members will:
-
Discover the value of life as given by the Creator and understand their true identity in Him.
​
-
Recognize the brokenness of sin and God’s miraculous work of restoration through Christ.
​
-
Gain perspective through prayer, learning to see the world as God sees it.
​
-
Learn to relate to others with love, forgiveness, and grace.
​
-
Understand God’s heart for the nations and how to live as part of His global mission.
​
-
Grow in compassion for the vulnerable and take steps to serve those in need.
​
-
Practice Christlike love toward enemies, breaking cycles of division and hate.
​
-
Experience the abundant life in Christ, marked by generosity, purpose, and hope.
​
By the end of the study, members will walk away with a clearer understanding of their God-given identity, a deeper love for others, and practical ways to live out the image of God daily.
