What is Heaven? Part 5: The Resurrection (#345)
About this episode
[DONATE WITH PAYPAL] Greg and Cory delve into the radical Christian teaching of the physical resurrection of the body, a cornerstone of Catholic eschatology that sets Christianity apart from other worldviews. They explore how the resurrection restores humanity to God’s original design in Genesis, uniting body and soul as seen in Christ’s own resurrection. Contrasting this with prevalent cultural and religious ideas—like Gnosticism or modern transhumanism—that prioritize escaping the physical, they highlight why the body matters to God’s redemptive plan. Drawing from Scripture and tradition, they discuss how the incarnation necessitated a physical savior to heal our flesh, making the resurrection central to the Gospel. The conversation also touches on how Catholicism’s sacramental nature reflects this truth, celebrating the material world God created. Join them for a thought-provoking look at why the resurrection is not just a future hope but a transformative reality shaping our faith today.
