By Sarah Wootten “Then God said, ‘Let us make man in our image, after our likeness,’” (Genesis 1:26, ESV). Last week, we looked at how God made mankind special and distinguished them from the rest of creation. God created mankind in His image. However, it is clear that we are very unlike God. God’s likeness … Continue reading God’s Image Restored in Christ →

By Sarah Wootten “When no bush of the field was yet in the land and no small plant of the field had yet sprung up…the LORD God formed the man of dust from the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living creature,” (Genesis 2:5-7, ESV).  Over … Continue reading Created in the Image of God →

By Audrey Christensen Exodus 34 is a pivotal chapter in the Old Testament because, in it, God characterizes Himself. Moses has recently received–and subsequently broken–the original Ten Commandments, so God is having him remake them. And God says to Moses about Himself: “The LORD descended in the cloud and stood with [Moses] there, and proclaimed … Continue reading God is Gracious →

By Joey Carroll If any characteristic of God is well-known, love would be it. Scripture is certainly clear on the subject. 1 John 4:8 states, “…God is love.” John, the Gospel writer, does not simply describe God’s character as loving, but describes the very essence of God’s nature as love. Without question, the greatest display … Continue reading God is Love →

Whether a person is waiting on Christmas break or waiting through a difficult season, we most often use the word “patient” to describe contentment while waiting. However, when we describe God as being patient, we mean a … Continue reading God is Patient →

By Joey Carroll The God who created the heavens and the earth has been so thorough in revealing who He is and what He is like. He first revealed His eternal power and divine nature through the act of Creation. He then described Himself with great detail and clarity in His Word, the Bible. And … Continue reading God is Merciful →

By Audrey Christensen What does it mean when we say something is holy? Maybe we mean “good,” but even that word has become distorted. (I think chocolate chip cookies are good.) There are other aspects of holiness that we should consider: awe, fear, purity, righteousness, perfection, set-apartness. After all of the characteristics of God that … Continue reading God is Holy →

By Sarah Wootten When you think of the word “faithful,” what is the first thing that comes to mind? Many people think of a marriage, where one spouse remains faithful to the other. Or perhaps a friend that has stuck with you through thick and thin. But, what do we mean when we say that … Continue reading The Faithfulness of God →

By Cody Anderson Last week, I talked about how the Sovereign God rightfully and justly does as He pleases with His creation. He is in control of all things; not one particle is outside His control. To some angels, He bestowed the honor of continually praising Him. To others, He gave the ability to follow … Continue reading The Sovereign God, Part 2 →
