HUMAN (10 Words to Heal Our Broken World Series)

Ideas Have Consequences

Humans are not merely animals or radically autonomous agents, and identity groups do not simply define us. It's time Christians challenge our modern culture's false understanding of human dignity and worth by contrasting it with the beautiful biblical definition of humanity. Imagine the impact if Christians could champion what it means to be humans as image bearers of God. This one change could flip our culture of death on its head.

Discover the profound implications of what it means to be human as we discuss insights from Scott Allen's forthcoming book, "10 Words to Heal Our Broken World." As with each discussion on the ten words from Scott's book, we’ll walk step by step through the true biblical definition, discuss the false redefined understanding, and conclude by giving you practical ways you can restore the true meaning of this word in your life, community, and nations. Together, let's celebrate our shared dignity as image-bearers of God and foster a more just and compassionate society for the glory of God and the blessing of nations.
