For our Fall Kick-Off Sunday, Pastor Ricky shows from Genesis 1:26-27 why God is the ultimate relational being who stamped that eternal desire on our own hearts when he crafted us to be his image bearers.
Imago Dei: Male & Female Image Bearers
September 3, 2023 • Ricky Beck • Genesis 1:26–27, Genesis 2:22, Matthew 19:4, Genesis 5:1–2
In today's culture, it is now difficult to discuss the Image of God and not cover the topic of gender and sexes. Hear from Genesis 1 and 2 on the beauty, purpose, and glory of humanity as seen in men and women.
After establishing that it is good for us to rest, Pastor Ricky preaches Genesis 2:1-3 and explains how God hopes we will spend our Sabbath.
Imago Dei: Rest Pt. 1
August 13, 2023 • Ricky Beck • Genesis 2:1–3
Most of us like the idea of "rest". At the last Summer Sunday of 2023 in Chestnut Ridge Park, Pastor Ricky helps us continue to understand how God set the pattern for rest and tells us we "Image" him best when we follow his pattern!
Imago Dei: Work Pt. 2
July 30, 2023 • Ricky Beck • Genesis 3:17–19
Work is hard. Raising kids is hard. Helping aging parents is hard. School is hard. How does all of that fit into God's vision for life? Today we learn why getting tired and frustrated is part of the curse in Genesis 3. But there is hope! Pastor Ricky also points us to the hope in Christ found in the same passage!
Imago Dei: Starting Place
July 16, 2023 • Ricky Beck • Genesis 1:26–27
Beginning a new series, Pastor Ricky opens up a critical conversation regarding how God created us. Join us in Genesis 1:26-27 to learn more about the Image of God that you and every other human carries.
