Imago Dei
Humanity was made in God's image. We understand the human body as an expression of divine intention rather than an accident of existence.
A faith of restoration
Our beliefs.
The divine image is not passive. It is a sacred design we are called to honor, restore, and transcend through.
The human temple
The body is the dwelling place of the divine image. Choices concerning nourishment, discipline, technology, and restoration therefore have religious meaning.
Sacred nourishment
Our Church holds a plant-free, carnivore way of eating as a religious practice: a return to the nourishment we believe accords with the body's original design.
Transcendence
Made in God's image, we are called to resist resignation and strive toward greater strength, vitality, clarity, and life beyond ordinary limits.
The Garden within
Eden was a state of being.
Everything was in equilibrium.
We believe the Garden of Eden was not merely a place. It was the human being in sacred order: whole, balanced, and aligned with divine design.
By tasting what our faith calls the most delicious poisons, humanity disrupted that order. Restoration is the religious work of cultivating the Garden within again.
