We often focus on the masculine character of God.

But when we omit the feminine, are we missing a very fundamental part of His nature?

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? 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.

Nooma is a revolutionary product that is changing the way people experience spirituality - a series of short films on DVD with a 32 page discussion guide. It's not a book or a cassette tape. And it's not a CD or a two-hour movie. It's a new format called Nooma - short films, between 10 and 14 minutes long, about God and our lives.
