Inherent Worth Beyond Achievements

Dr. Carmen Joy Imes visits Park Hill for a full Sunday. This recording is from our morning worship services. In this "Part One" teaching (Part Two happened later in the evening, all about women in the Bible and the Church), Carmen unpacks what it means that ALL humans ARE the image of God, and she draws the profound implications for how we should think about people with disabilities, creation care, and immigration. 

Carmen is associate professor of Old Testament at Talbot School of Theology at Biola University and is the author of several incredible books: Bearing God's Name: Why Sinai Still Matters, Being God's Image: Why Creation Still Matters, and the forthcoming Becoming God's Family: Why the Church Still Matters. Carmen is passionate about equipping the church to engage the Old Testament well and to see its relevance for the Christian life.
