Episode notes

Dietrich Bonhoeffer has a marvelous line where he says humans are algorithms or something like that. Don't algorithms require a designer? I always wonder about that. He's appealing to people who are having a crisis of identity and they don't know what to do. But we look to Christ and we now have a glimpse of how God has actually solved the problem.

In the beginning, God spoke the world into existence. He made man and woman the crown of his creation, image-bearers of the Almighty God. Humans have a special place in God’s created order. But as we know, it didn’t take long for sin to enter the world, corrupting this image and changing our relationship to our Creator. In this episode of White Horse Inn, hosts Michael Horton, Justin Holcomb, Bob Hiller, and Walter Strickland consider our true nature as those created by God and why it’s important for us to understand our origin story.
