circleWe as Christians need to do a better job of talking about bodies in ways that respect creation, not just criticize people who want to do things that we think are morally wrong, but help them understand what God sees as right.”
Professor, author, and theologian Michael Horton says in this episode: The Russell Moore ShowHe and Moore discussed Houghton’s new book. Shamans and Sages: The Ancient Roots of “Spiritual but Not Religious”Their conversation explores the growing cultural interest in Wicca, why people crave a connection to the mystical, and the goodness of the physical bodies we create.
They talk about technological advances that seek to transcend the physical body, how we’ve arrived at a cultural moment where people are spiritual but not religious, and what it means to engage with people who believe the universe doesn’t hold the answers.
Be sure to listen to this episode that helps Christians understand how the goodness of the gospel transforms our whole being: body and soul.
