In this message, Pastor Drew Webb continues our journey through the opening chapters of Genesis, exploring the profound truth that humanity was created in the image of God. This passage not only defines our identity but also clarifies our purpose in God’s world.
We are image-bearers—reflections of our Creator who are designed to demonstrate His character, love, and justice. Humanity is called to exercise dominion with humility, to steward creation responsibly, and to cultivate life that honors God. This biblical vision of stewardship stands in stark contrast to both exploitation and indifference, showing that God’s design for human rule is rooted in care and compassion.
The sermon also highlights how God’s first act toward humanity was blessing. We were made to flourish in relationship with Him, with each other, and within the world He made. In this beautiful portrait of creation, Pastor Webb reminds us that God’s purpose has always been to pour out His grace and goodness on those created in His image.
