On this episode of The DiscipleMakers Podcast, we talked with Zack Gugenheim about the connection between our souls and our bodies. Often Christians can tend to want to solve every problem or trial with a spiritual answer. But through our conversation, Zack helped us to see how the Bible actually calls us to view ourselves and others more holistically, as both body and soul working together. This can really help us as we seek to care well for others, and gives us some very practical applications for how we should steward our own bodies to become more effective in our ministry. Towards the end of the episode, we also talked about some particular implications of this topic related to the new semester and the continuing pandemic. -- Resources from this episode: Help us meet students this fall!
