Not Just Created—Designed (Genesis 1 & Hebrews 1)

from Sparked by Promise · host Karena Cruse and Matt Bennett

What does it actually mean to be made in the “image of God”?In this episode, we go back to Genesis 1:26–27, where humans are created in God’s image and then we connect it to something in the New Testament that adds a whole new layer.In Colossians 1 and Hebrews 1, Jesus is described as the image of God… the exact representation.Which raises a question we hadn’t really thought about before:If He is the image…what does that mean for us?We talk through what “image” might mean beyond just appearance and how it could relate to identity, reflection, and something deeper than we’ve probably considered.We’re not theologians. We didn’t go to seminary.We’re just asking questions, noticing patterns, and trying to understand what’s been there all along.Some of this might stretch your thinking a little.Some of it might feel surprisingly simple.But all of it points back to something foundational:You were created with intention.Come explore it with us.Genesis 1:26–27Colossians 1:15Hebrews 1:3
