Overview

Many Christians spend their lives swinging wildly between idolizing the body and ignoring it. On one hand, we can easily make too much of our bodies, fixating and obsessing over them. On the other, we can make too little of them, convinced they are in the way of our best work. Yet our bodies are always communicating something, teaching us, like all of God’s creation, about the One who made them.

In The Life I Live in the Body, award-winning journalist, editor, and author Whitney K. Pipkin invites you to trade the idea that your body is an accident or an impediment for a better and more biblical way of living in one. Namely, she invites you to receive life in a body as an invitation to experience the sort of delight and dependence that only an embodied Savior can provide.

This book helps:

  • Redirect and redeem your inner dialogue about your body
  • Replace false beliefs about the physical body with more holistic, biblical concepts
  • Rediscover what it means to be human in an age of machine-like productivity
  • And fix your eyes on a God who took on human form to be with us
