why “ikonograph”?
Posted by Jason Oesterling on February 8, 2008
The new church that we are starting in Medina, OH is called ikon. (www.ikonmedina.com) Ikon means “image.” Here are three foundational ideas for the church:
1. Jesus is the image of God (colossians 1.15). It’s all about Jesus.
2. We are being conformed to the image of God (romans 8.29). We’re becoming more like Jesus.
3. We are created in the image of God (genesis 1.27). We represent Jesus in the world.
So “ikonograph” is the rambling writings of an ikon in process – daily becoming more like Jesus. Over time, I’ll share many resources that have been helpful to me, news about the new church, and miscellaneous thoughts about life, theology, and more.
