We pick up our study of creation week by looking at the reasons DNA makes evolutionary theory impossible, and a couple of other reasons why Darwin's proposals are intellectually bankrupt. We'll also delve into the question of what it means that man was created "Imago Dei" - in the image and likeness of God. In the incredible answer, we'll find the purpose of our existence...
SMALL GROUP QUESTIONS:
If someone asked you what it means that we were made in the image of God (“Imago Dei”), how would you answer?
How should the reality that we were created for a relationship with God affect how we approach daily life, decision-making, and defining success?
Deuteronomy 6:5 commands us to “Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength.” Which aspect comes most naturally to you (heart/emotions, soul/mind, strength/actions)? Which comes least naturally?
Are you being intentional about loving the Lord in ways that don’t come naturally to you? How?
What do think of the idea that we can be blessing to our heavenly Father? How does, or should, that idea affect the way we worship and serve Him?
Does the fact that we are called to represent God to those in our lives affect the way you interact with people? How?
