In Western culture, we tend to think and make decisions according to right and wrong; whether we will be innocent or guilty because of something. But in many other cultures, and in the culture the Bible was written to, they thought in terms of honour and shame.

He starts by looking at the idea of being made in God’s image, and how that should speak into our shame.
