On today's episode Rich and Steve are diving into the crown jewel of creation - humanity. It seems as though all creation points to being a place for humanity to flourish in. How incredible to think that we as humans are made in God's image. But does being made in God's image specifically point to physical bodies? What does it mean to have a soul? Steve and Rich break down what being made in the image of God means. We were designed to be in relationship with God and in perfect community with each other but as we know the first humans fell into sin. What does this mean as far as human will? What have been the long-term effects of the fall? When thinking of these things how would we define death? Rich brings up the idea of being "born outside of the garden" as a result of the fall. Whether it is a result of personal intentional sin or not we are living daily in the effects of the first rebellion. We do know that each one of us is created in God's image and that means we are meant to be in relationship with Him. There is still hope even in spite of the fall of man. The solution is in the Gospel. Make sure you're back next week as this discussion is continued!
