Student Questions: Sin, part 4
from The Word Without Walls Podcast Hosted by Michael Eschelbach
As the student questions series continues, I'm talking through ideas for conversation inspired from a text we use in Core Theology class at Concordia University-Irvine–Called to Believe by Steven Mueller.

What is the image of God, especially in terms of relationship? How does Adam's fall invert God's image? How do we see Jesus, especially in the Gospel of John, setting things right? Consider wealth and riches in life that have to do with God's creation (nature, family, physiology). Compare that with human "riches". What is the consequence for abandoning essence in favor of extension?
