Metamorphosis is the podcast of Trinity United Methodist Church in Piedmont, Missouri, where we share the unchanging love of Jesus to change people’s lives.


Happy Day After Easter! Last episode, Eric talked about how Christians tend to focus so much on the Crucifixion but not enough on the Resurrection. In this episode, he reflects on how Jesus' bodily resurrection shows that God cares about our bodies as well as our spirits.


Jesus' ministry shows that God cares about our physical, social, emotional, and pyschological needs as much as God cares about our spirituality. In fact, much of our spirituality can't be addressed until other needs are met.


Throw into the mix what we (think we) know about quantum physics, and perhaps we can imagine the reality behind the observations of the Resurrected Jesus recorded in the Gospels and the metaphors Revelation uses to describe God's ultimate intentions.


Eric mentions the following books and authors:


An Untidy Faith by Kate Boyd


Curveball by Pete Enns
