Every culture constructs images of God that they hang their beliefs on. Each such God is a facet of the God that can never be fully imagined. Joseph Campbell calls them the masks of God.
But these images of God don't have to come out of a culture. They can come out of us and be seeded into the culture, as they often have been: Van Eyck's God Enthroned or Grunewald's crudified Jesus.
My contribution is this: God is the mirror that reflects back to us the deepest and fullest humanity within us.
