The Image of God: An Exploration of What it Means to be Human

Published on: 11th June, 2024

Exploring the doctrine of Imago Dei and what it is that makes humans different from other animals, Joshua Noel examines the history of how different theologians have thought about these questions for the last 2,000 years!

.

What is the meaning of the imago Dei? What are the three types of imago Dei? What is the teaching of imago Dei? Why is imago Dei important to Christians? What do Catholics believe about the imago Dei? How do you pronounce imago Dei? How do we reflect the image of God? How to walk in the image of God? What does the Bible say about reflecting God's image? Are humans that different from animals? What is the difference between an animal and a human?

About the Podcast

Dummy for Theology
One dummy's struggle to worship God with his mind
We can worship God with our minds by pondering the things of God, who He is, and how creation relates to its Creator. If you are looking for a podcast with all the answers about God and Theology, this is not the show for you! But, if you are looking for a show that will leave you with more questions than answers about the Divine, so you can struggle to worship God better, then join me in my adventure to love God better with my feeble brain!
