Earthen Vessels - Why our Bodies Matter to our Faith
You are flesh and blood. It's easy to forget this, living as if your mind and soul were all that mattered. But ignoring your body leads to an incomplete, ineffective life. God created us from the dust, and being physical beings in a physical world affects everything from our use of technology to our sexuality and our worship.
In this provocative book, Matthew Lee Anderson explores how our bodies interact with our faith. How have recent generations of Christians been shaped by the culture around us in this regard? What can we do to push back? Through a deeper understanding of our physical lives, God can bring the dry bones of our faith back to life.
On the program today we will talk about "Why our bodies matter to our faith". And specifically, what does the recent renaissance that has taken tattoos from the margin to mainstream, even in Evangelicalism, mean.
My guest on the program today will be Matthew Anderson - blogs at Mere Orthodoxy and Evangel.
