Theology Night

By Josiah Vanderveen & Suzannah Waddington /

In the beginning, God created men and women equally in His image (Gen. 1:26). Yet even before the fall, God gave men and women distinct roles by design (Gen. 2:15, 18). This design wasn’t a mistake—it was very good (Gen. 1:31). In creation, God laid out the blueprint for men and women to flourish as they embrace their respective God-ordained callings, but sadly, sin’s entry into the world has disrupted God’s good design (Gen. 3). Come spend an evening with Dr. Kevin DeYoung, and discover how despite sin’s corruption, the grace of the gospel renews men and women to embrace God’s good and complementary design, both in marriage and the church.

Please bring a dessert to share, labeled with any allergens.
