Episode Synopsis

And we’re back! Join Sarah & Katie as we “vision cast” (how mega-churchy of us) for Season 4 of The Still Christian Podcast: Embodied Faith. Western Christianity has leaned heavily on the rational mind as our primary means of knowing and worshipping God:

But what about these bodies of ours that God created and called “very good”?
Could the body be more than just a hindrance to overcome on the spiritual journey?
What if our embodied selves are just as capable of knowing and worshipping God as our thinking selves

Join us as we explore what it means to bring our minds and our bodies into our faith.
