Wrap-Up - The Many Faces of God, week 11
Every person is created in the image of God. Is the image of God singular, or vast and multifaceted?

And as we live in community, we collectively display a more full and tangible picture of the heart of God. In this series, we explore the nature of God, the nature of ourselves, and the nature of each other for the sake of reclaiming God’s intended reality and creating a better you and a better world.
