Image Church is a loving, Bible-teaching church in South Orange County, CA. While many today may believe the Scriptures are outdated, we believe that they are as relevant as ever. And so we seek to form our community around the Bible and the simple, yet profound, elements of a biblical church found in Acts 2:42. We are people who are saved, but not perfected. And so we invite other imperfect peopl
e to join us as we seek to be obedient and faithful to the only perfect and faithful One who suffered and died for our sins, Jesus Christ. The name “Image Church” was chosen out of a deep concern to be both biblically faithful and culturally relevant. While many people are aware of various rules contained within the Bible, far fewer understand the actual story of the Bible. One way to tell the grand story simply is with the biblical word “image”. The Bible teaches in Genesis that humankind was created in the “image of God” (Gen. 1:26-27). However, because of sin, the Bible also teaches that the image of God in every human being has been distorted from birth since the introduction of sin into the human race (Ps. 51:5; Eph. 2:1-3). But thanks be to God that in and through Jesus, and only Him, God is inviting all people everywhere to be renewed in the image of Christ through the indwelling power of the Holy Spirit to the glory of God the Father (Col. 3:10; Rom. 8:29). And so as you can see, not only is the name “Image Church” profoundly biblical, in this deeply divided and polarizing time in our culture, we are reminded of our common humanity, our common sin, and our common salvation.
