Episode Description:

What does it mean to be human? We live in an age of many voices trying to shape our understanding of who we are and what we are supposed to do.

Our guest on this episode is Dr. Carmen Joy Imes (PhD, Wheaton). She is Associate Professor of Old Testament at Biola University and the author of Being God's Image: Why Creation Still Matters (InterVarsity Press, 2023).

Our identity is rooted in Genesis 1, where humanity is created in God’s image. Imago Dei is our human identity, made to represent God in his very good creation. And what we do in our vocations flows directly from who we are as the Imago Dei.

Re-integrate

How can we overcome the disconnect between our Sunday faith and the rest of our week?

Every week, join David Loughney and Dr. Bob Robinson as they discuss the joys and frustrations of reintegrating every aspect of life with their faith and interview thought leaders and practitioners who are doing it. Bob is in his 50s and David is in his 20s, so they offer an engaging dialogue from different generational vantage points.

If you desire insights into how to live an integrated Christian life, one in which you can better experience Jesus Christ and participate in what God’s doing in the world, this is the podcast for you.
