(June 2026) “I am created in God’s image. No matter what anyone else says.”
We’ll begin with the story of God’s creation and the “very goodness” that is spoken over every human being. The study will then turn to various scripture texts that have been used to undermine, silence and degrade women for centuries. Unpacking the ways these verses have been read against women shines a light on the realities of sexism and the ways that, for too long, the Bible has been used to prop up the oppression of women. But we will also hear how those same scriptures can be read as invitations to new freedom, community and vocation for people, regardless of gender, for all people were made in God’s image.
