Oversimplified narratives about our bodies surround us. Through conversations and airwaves, we are constantly told what we should pursue with our bodies, how we should think about them, and what dangers follow disagreement with the cultural ethos of desire, gender, sexuality, and marriage.
But these messages skip over some very essential questions–questions like: what is your body, exactly? What is your body for? Who created it, and with what purpose? What is the eternal destiny of our bodies, and how does that inform what we do on a normal week?
Join us for an eight-week series unpacking God’s plan for the human body–a majestic story from beginning to end.
DISCLAIMER for parents:
During this series, we'll be talking about subjects like gender and sexuality. We will strive to make the sermons appropriate for preteens in the auditorium, but we realize this may bring up additional conversations. We wanted to let you know in advance so you aren't caught off guard or thrown into conversations you weren't prepared for.
The one sermon that may not be ideal for preteens is the Eros sermon on 10/15. On this Sunday, we will open space in Kidtown for preteens who want to serve the younger children.
To help facilitate LifeGroup discussion, we'll be posting resources for each week of the series.

Q & A Podcasts
During our Embodied series, we had over 70 questions texted in. To cover these questions more fully, we’re releasing a handful of extra podcast episodes to further equip you.
During the series, we want to know the concepts and ideas that you wrestle with the most or would like to learn more about. We'll base the final sermon of the series off of the submissions we receive.
