Touching Salvation - Elevation of the Cross

Are you spiritual? Whatever you may say about your spiritual nature, you dwell on this earth in a tangible, physical form. The physical is not some second rate state to be despised in favor of the spiritual. At the Liturgy for the Feast of the Elevation of the Cross, Bp. Irineos contemplates how God used tangible, physical things for our salvation and how Christ bequeathed to the Church the Holy Mysteries in that same tangible form.
