| Description: | Theme: Are we missing a fundamental part of God's nature? We didn't have anything to do with our birth. We are all here because a woman gave us life. Her pain, her effort, for our life. And when a mother gives like that to a child she is showing us what God is like, but sometimes this part of God's nature is overlooked. A lot of us are comfortable with male imagery for God. But what about female imagery for God? Is God limited to a gender? Or does God transcend and yet include what we know as male and female? Maybe if were were more aware of the feminine imagery for God, we would have a better understanding of who God is and what God is like. Jesus lived with the awareness that God is doing something right here, right now, and anybody can be a part of it. He encouraged his listeners to search, to question, to wrestle with the implications of what he was saying and doing. He inspired, challenged, provoked, comforted,and invited people to be open to God's work in this world. Wherever he went, whatever he did, Jesus started discussions about what matters most, because for Jesus, God is always inviting us to open our eyes and join in. NOOMA is a series of short films that explore our world from the perspective of Jesus. Nooma is an invitation to search, question, and join the discussion. Language sub-titles include: English, French, German, Korean, Mandarin, Portuguese, Spanish, Arabic, Dutch, italian, Japanese and Russian. |
