Great article. This is a topic many avoid. The unity of our being being both corporal and spiritual is so important.

In truth, when it comes to proclaiming the gospel, our secular culture in many ways has reverted more to paganism akin to the Greeks than anything else. The “nones” maybe non religious but many are still spiritual via some quasi-new ageism. And so, many still believe in the soul, but do not have any sense of the importance of the creation and goodness of our body. In fact, the aging of our bodies is a tell of the biblical view of original sin. Furthermore, the biblical view is that the nature of humans is body/soul and therefore salvation must come to the whole person body and soul.
