Image Of God Episodes

Continuing the conversation about sexuality with a detour into the topic of physical embodiment as seen from Jesus, the gospel, sacrament, and community.  Do you see creation as cursed?  Are the sacraments "just" symbolic?  Two connected questions that with the message of the gospel can help us address our discomforts with our bodies.  **Website: www.genesismarksthespot.com  My Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/GenesisMarkstheSpot  The Genesis of Gender by Abigail Favale: https://www.amazon.com/Genesis-Gender-Christian-Theory-ebook/dp/B0B788FF4P/ref=sr_1_1?crid=ZGFZ2I8ZMQCK&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.j1LrLhnaMWMJu3WjdTEGlB3UVYx9h4HoH58TsSXYfQTkHO9FN87x7HTCwtdkxODFnjylTt4LAmPTk8NiRdU26W8RwfPwgoFua5pOsLJUh8aOfYlcnAWvbA3a2ggvmi7FNxgBrEtMFguSn2RiODZQAAr0BczXD7oUTF3BSkkH-vQM9Y-C2dcUGWr5UuXnBL-6b1Qv7IsXYDKQMR2dvvCSi43y3LQWFqJlPd181RQ02yY.mUGQ-bHZL2moVXEI-3j5Iq6zX0zW3DUr2kpCMf0Y6MA&dib_tag=se&keywords=genesis+of+gender&qid=1726187422&sprefix=genesis+of+gende%2Caps%2C413&sr=8-1  Rise and T…

Worship and the image of God: both are associated with sacred space and our relationship with God.  James Russell joins me for a conversation about how these things connect with our discipleship as believers.  While we don't touch on current events and eschatology, the things discussed in this conversation are how I personally relate to the topic of the end times.  **New website is here!!! www.genesismarksthespot.com  My Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/GenesisMarkstheSpot  Genesis Marks the Spot on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/genesismarksthespot  Genesis Marks the Spot on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/genesismarksthespot/ Music credit: "Marble Machine" by Wintergatan  Link to Wintergatan’s website: https://wintergatan.net/  Link to the original Marble Machine video by Wintergatan: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IvUU8joBb1Q&ab_channel=Wintergatan

Continuing the discussion about the embodied image of God, Joshua Sherman and I talk about the ancient Near East context of the image and also ethical and philosophical implications of it.  Is the image ontological or is it functional?  It is a noun or is a verb--or can we see it as both?

Continuing with the series on the image of God, in this episode I talk to Joshua Sherman about the important aspect of the image being embodied in both Christ as well as in us as individual humans and the church as the body of Christ.

Joshua Sherman joins the podcast to talk about the image of Christ.  We discuss how we can trace the image of God through the Bible forward into its ultimate picture in the incarnation of Jesus and how we ought to think of both the image of God and the image of Christ in relationship to who we are and how we live our lives. “You are called to this purpose because of who God created you to be. And we're inviting you to live into that through Christ because he is the one that makes it possible.” —Joshua Sherman Bonus material: https://genesis-marks-the-spot.castos.com/ Genesis Marks the Spot on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/genesismarksthespot Music credit: "Marble Machine" by Wintergatan Link to Wintergatan’s website: https://wintergatan.net/ Link to the original Marble Machine video by Wintergatan: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IvUU8joBb1Q&ab_channel=Wintergatan

This episode takes a bit of a diversion from biblical theology into the question of “What is the image of God?” Does God have a physical aspect that we copy (could the LDS church be right about us becoming gods)? Is the image of God proof against evolution? Is the image of God the soul of man? What about relationality or rationality or consciousness or morality, are any of those the image of God? Is the image of God a status or a function?
