What is Eikon?
Thanks for checking out broken eikon. EIKON (eye-kon) is the Greek word for “image.” In the Scripture, human beings are said to be made in the eikon (image) of God. We find that humanity has not lived up to this image, and has made very serious mistakes, breaking the eikon. The scriptures also tell us how Jesus Christ was the perfect eikon of God, and so we have taken the name Eikon to reflect who God made us to be, and who Jesus taught us to be. The world is beautiful but sick. We, as Eikon, desire to become part of creation’s redemption by loving God in the way of Jesus, serving Creation, and radically loving others.
Eikon is a church of Fort Worth, and while we meet on Sundays for worship, that is not what we call church. While our church meets to worship together as a community on Sundays, the church lives 24/7… in mission groups, where we secretly plot for the good of Fort Worth, the church is present… in our families, where love is modeled, and mistakes are made in safe places, the church is there. In coffee house conversations and when parents talk during halftime of their children’s soccer game, you will find the church.
Welcome to Eikon.
