My desire in speaking on the matter is to warn...

Send us Fan Mail God gives image bearers (us) what are called "communicable attributes." I think of these as "common gifts" that God bestows on everyone as something we share with God.

Send us Fan Mail How does a jeweler make diamonds look so good? He sets them against a dark background so their shininess stands out!

Send us Fan Mail Have you ever come across a genealogy in the Bible? You know, the part where it says "and so and so fathered so and so" and it's a long list of ancestry.
