Bodies have a complicated history for many. Some people like theirs; others feel uncomfortable in theirs. Peoples' feelings about their bodies and their bodies themselves change over time. Paul's words, however, remain unchanged, except for translation changes. Jonathan and Seth use this as an opportunity to read from The Message, talk about how this passage can be heard differently by people with different experiences of their body, and whether the "Body of Christ" is a helpful metaphor today.
This episode connects to last week's, but listening to that episode is not a prerequisite. Either stand on its own.
