God created humans in His own image and likeness. While experiences, society, and science can influence how we see ourselves, who we truly are is defined by God - we are His children, forgiven, redeemed, and created with purpose. As God's masterpiece, each person is uniquely talented, fearfully and wonderfully made, and destined not for defeat but to be more than a conqueror through Christ.
