Summary
Human beings may have souls to be concerned about, but we spend a great deal of time in a physical body. What are the spiritual implications of being flesh and blood?
Episode Description
All of us as humans are embodied. We come into being through our bodies being formed in the womb, and when our bodies die, our lives in this world end.
Christians have held different attitudes to the body over history - while the body has a central place in the Christian understanding of the life to come, at times the body has been seen as the source of sin.
Megan Powell due Toit and Michael Jensen talk about a significant Christian concept - the flesh - and what it means for how we relate to ourselves and others as embodied people.
The WADR team then talk to the author Sam Allberry about his work on the body, and finish with a recent film that grapples with the Christian relationship with the body, The Wonder.
