The Creative Connection
The Creative Connection with Pastor Ed Young is a national daily radio show combining faith with everyday life. Every episode is filled with practical wisdom and biblical insights to strengthen listeners' understanding and relationship with Jesus.
Imago Dei
In this episode of The Creative Connection, Ed Young closes the series by teaching that we are made in the image of God—imago dei—to be walking advertisements of His glory, and that glorifying God is a response to His identity (His holiness and His omnipotence, omniscience, and omnipresence), His activity, and His creativity, seen everywhere we look in creation.
Glorifier
In this episode of The Creative Connection, Ed Young teaches that every person has a "glorifier" inside them, and that glorifying God is inherent, active, and meant to transcend every area of life rather than be compartmentalized—calling believers to ascribe glory to God, agree with who He is, adhere to His commands, and announce His glory, rather than wasting their worship on idols or self.
Holy, Holy, Holy
In this episode of The Creative Connection, Ed Young teaches that God's chief attribute is not love but holiness—the "otherness" that sets Him apart—and uses Isaiah's vision of God's glory in Isaiah 6 to show how a beautiful collision with God's holiness brings conviction of sin and leads to the wonderful condition of being made holy through Christ and sent out in worship.
Mirrored
In this episode of The Creative Connection, Ed Young opens the series by teaching that the meaning of life is to glorify God—to mirror the majesty of our Maker in everything we do, say, touch, and feel—and that God's glory is intrinsic, independent, and invitational, so that lost people can see God reflected in the lives of those who turn their mirror toward Him rather than themselves.
Unleashing Unforgiveness
In this episode of The Creative Connection, Ed Young closes the series by sharing openly from his own seasons of shame—including the loss of his daughter—and returns to the parable of the unmerciful servant to teach that forgiveness is uncomfortable, unusual, unceasing, and unemotional, giving five steps to name, own, and release the shame we carry.
