Abundant Life of the Body

The Well Church Edmond

For lots of us, we have been handed a divided way of seeing reality: "Physical vs. Spiritual." This has perhaps caused us to split all physical aspects of life – including our relationship to our own bodies – away from our understanding of spirituality. But what we actually see in scripture is that we are fully integrated beings. We cannot pull our spiritual and physical things apart without doing damage to our whole selves. Our spirit, the intangible essence of ourselves, is completely entangled with our physicality. Our flesh and blood and bones are part of our spiritual selves.
