The latest episode of Behind the Lens with Queen Liz turns the spotlight on one of humanity’s most enduring and universal questions: Who is God?
Across religions and cultures, belief in a Supreme Being remains a powerful common thread linking Christianity, Islam and African Traditional Religion. While the question itself may appear familiar, the conversation it provokes continues to shape faith, identity and human understanding. This week’s episode revisits that question with renewed intellectual depth and interfaith perspective.
Hosted by Elizabeth Essuman, the discussion brings together UTI Dawah, Prophet Bishop Michael Banga, and Pan-Africanist Avraham Ben Moshe, who collectively examine theological, spiritual and philosophical interpretations of God. Drawing from Biblical and Qur’anic references, as well as African spiritual thought, the panel reflects on how different traditions define, experience and relate to the divine.
Watch the episode below.
The episode acknowledges the widely held view of God as the supreme creator and sustainer of the universe — a spiritual being worshipped as the principal object of faith. Yet it moves beyond orthodox definitions to interrogate deeper questions that have long preoccupied believers and sceptics alike: Is God gendered? Is God male, female, or beyond human categories altogether?
While some theological traditions lean towards masculine imagery — often influenced by scriptural language referring to God as “Father” — the discussion challenges listeners to think more expansively. The panelists converge on the idea of God as an infinite and ineffable source, transcending human limitations and embodying the mystery that gives existence its meaning.
Described as intense, intellectually stimulating and deeply reflective, the episode offers viewers a rich blend of scholarship and spirituality. It promises not only insight but also enduring “food for thought” for audiences seeking to understand faith in a complex, plural world.
Behind the Lens with Queen Liz continues to position itself as a platform for thoughtful dialogue on culture, belief and society.
