Made in Our Image: What Shall We Do With a User-Friendly God?

Made in Our ImageDigital imaging can alter a picture so fast it leaves people asking, “What is reality?” Have we bought into a user-friendly, “designer” God of our own? In his eighth provocative primer on Christian living, Pastor Steven Lawson asks if we’re seeing a true picture of God these days, or a distorted one designed to fit a popular image on the present cultural canvas? Lawson tackles the timely topic on the personal and greater church levels. Non-condemning, Made in Our Image alerts readers to the dangers of a socially constructed deity and inspires them to “accept no counterfeits” for the true, living, sometimes “socially incorrect” God.


I dream of a new reformation that is not simply a renewal of life but a new vision of life. As long as Christians restrict their Christianity to a religion, a faith that is compartmentalized and isolated from life, there can be revival but never reformation. We need to hear and do the Word of God in all of our lives."
