God Is: Expanding Our Images of God and Self

Teacher: Mallory Wyckoff What we believe to be true about God informs what we believe to be true about everything and everyone else. When God is conceived solely through masculine language, metaphors, and imagery—whether in sermons, religious art, or in private prayer—we are robbed of countless ways to experience the Divine, to consider ourselves as humans, to order our communities in ways where everyone has the ability to flourish. In this workshop, we’ll inventory our functioning image(s) of God, explore feminine imagery and metaphors, and seek to live into a fuller expression of the Divine—and of ourselves.
