Remembering Women’s History

March 5, 2015 by Megan

So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

Genesis 1:27

God created us in His own image. Because we are created in the image of God, we have the ability to think, to create, to communicate, to foster relationships, and much more. We are patterned after Him.
