Being shaped

Loading player...
God knows that we are not only shaped from the inside out, with teaching and truth
that is in our hearts and minds and then fleshes out. We are also shaped from the
outside in. We are embodied beings. We inhabit time and space. How we experience
time, and what we do with our bodies has a powerful shaping effect on our lives. The
way we use time, and the way we use traditions imprints the love of God on hearts
from the outside in, through our senses, and hopefully into hearts.
