Episode 30 - Images and Idols - Images and Idols Finale

from Roots & Relevance · host Roots and Relevance

In this thought-provoking finale to our "Images and Idols" series, we explore what it truly means to reflect God's image in today's complex world. We tackle challenging questions about Christian identity - are we "exiles" or "under occupation" in our culture? We examine the dangers of conflating political allegiances with biblical principles and discuss the controversial notion of "the sin of empathy." Through honest conversation, we consider how followers of Jesus can maintain their distinctive witness while engaging meaningfully with those around them. Join us as we conclude our journey exploring what it means to be image bearers in a kingdom not of this world.
