Lesson 21
NOOMA She | 021
Rob Bell
Approx. 13 min - Released 2008
We didn't have anything to do with our birth. We are all here because some woman somewhere 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 we were more aware of the feminine imagery for God we would have a better understanding of who God is and what God is like.

Reproducible discussion guide included
NOOMA is changing the way people experience spirituality. Not a book or a cassette tape, not a CD or a two-hour movie, they're short films on DVD, between 10 and 14 minutes long - each with a reproducible discussion guide - about God and our lives. The study materials accompanying each film encourage meaningful discussion with relevant questions and biblical references. Rob Bell, a leading pastor and breakthrough communicator in the Christian community, is featured in the first series of NOOMAs.
They're appropriate for personal and small group settings, congregational meetings, and much more. Like parables, they use the experiences of our lives to teach about the fullness of life through Jesus, tackling issues like forgiveness, discipleship, and unconditional love.
