Publisher's Summary
What does it mean to be human? This timeless question proves critical as we seek to understand our purpose, identity, and significance. Amidst the many voices clamoring to shape our understanding of humanity, the Bible reveals important truths related to our human identity and vocation that are critical to the flourishing of all of creation.
Carmen Joy Imes seeks to recover the theologically rich message of the creation narratives starting in the book of Genesis as they illuminate what it means to be human. Every human being is created as God's image. Imago Dei is our human identity, and God appointed humans to rule on God's behalf. Being God's Image explores the implications of this kinship relationship with God and considers what it means for our work, our gender relations, our care for creation, and our eternal destiny. The Bible invites us into a dramatically different quality of life: a beloved community in which we can know God and one another as we are truly known.

A little bit of Bible, A whole lot of Moralising
I expected to get this book and learn something about the Bible and about being a human being. And to be fair I did get some of that.
What I didn't expect and ruined the book for me, is the amount of scolding and moralising (telling me how I should think and behave) especially in the categories defined by modern political issues. I use to be excited about stuff that came from Biola professors, not so much these days.
I was interested in the title, and feel tricked into a struggle session on critical social politics.
Sorry Carmen, I'll wait a bit longer to get your next book, please concentrate on your area of expertise and less on the social controversies.
