Lewis's warnings are prophetic; this book is not merely an...

At a time when its relevance and sustainability are being weighed in the balance and...

This Is My Body: A Story of Sickness and Health
ISBN: 9781848259485 / Angielski / Miękka / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In a culture obsessed with youth, body image and physical perfection, many people have an ambiguous relationship with their bodies. Yet our bodies are the means through which we relate to and encounter others and ourselves, the site of our personal hopes and struggles, a source of pleasure and the basis of pain. Amid these conflicting expectations, the Christian narrative - that God chose to share in the physical reality of our lives and became flesh in the person of Jesus Christ - provides us with a critical lens through which to view our relationship with our bodies.
