Sexuality and Following Jesus–Chapel and Talkback
Is our embodied humanity a temporary curse or permanent, glorious reality? Does salvation seem to imply getting out of our bodies, or is it about finally being at home in our bodies and getting to be truly human forever? Too often, Christians are deeply ambivalent, or silent, about our embodied lives and whether they really matter in the end. Ironically, if we take Jesus鈥� humanity seriously, then we will begin to see that 鈥渋n the end鈥� God鈥檚 gift and goal is to give us our truly human, truly sexual, truly Christian lives back, then and now!
