The Story of My Body: Running Into Being (Christine Lee‪)‬ Saint Peter's Mixtape

    • Christianity

This Lent, we are focusing our spiritual practice on the body with our midweek series "Jesus, Re-Member Me: Lent and the Body." Christine kicked off our series by sharing the story of her body as it intersected with race, gender and spirituality: growing up as the child of Korean immigrants and aspiring to the ideal of white American beauty, the separation of body and spirit in the church, learning to shrink inward and become invisible, and the journey of moving from weakness to power. 

Practice: Spend some time journaling around these questions: 

1. Think back to your childhood. Where did you experience original goodness in your body?

2. As you reflect back on your story, where have you experienced this dis-membering?

3. Where have you experienced this re-membering? Where would you hope to?
