What does it mean that humanity was made to "have dominion"? In this fourth episode of our Imago Dei series, Greg and Nathan unpack the kingly calling at the heart of being made in God’s image. From Genesis to Revelation, Scripture paints a royal picture of humanity—not as tyrants or owners, but as vice-regents under the true King.
We’ll explore how the Bible uses royal language to describe human purpose, how sin has distorted our rule, and how Jesus—our Servant King—restores and redefines our authority through grace. From stewarding the earth to resisting evil and creating beauty, this episode is a deep dive into what it looks like to reign in life the way God intended.
Whether you feel powerless or prideful, this episode will remind you: you were made to rule—but only under the rule of Christ.
You were made for more than survival—you were made for responsible rulership. Through Christ, we don’t grasp at power; we receive grace to serve. Kingship, in God’s Kingdom, always looks like love with authority and order shaped by mercy.
