In this episode, the hosts dive deep into the doctrine of humanity, discussing the unique position of humans as created in God's image, the importance of gender as designed by God, and humanity's distinction from the rest of creation through the soul and the ability to have a relationship with God. They touch on current cultural debates around gender, emphasizing the biblical perspective. The discussion extends to the roles of humans as workers, as part of the creation narrative, and explores how humans reflect God's image through work, creativity, and relationships.
