**What does God have to say about our bodies?**

To modern secular culture, the human body is little more than a vehicle for free self-expression-*our bodies belong to us, and we can do with them as we please*. In this way, the prevailing culture has lost sight of the true significance of the body. Similarly, Christians also tend to underemphasize the significance of the physical body. In *What God Has to Say about Our Bodies*, Sam Allberry argues that the Bible has a lot to say about the body, and shows how the practical significance of Scripture's teaching on this topic impacts how Christians should think and behave. Organized around three categories-what God intended for the body (creation), the impact of sin on the body (fall), and how God will redeem the body (redemption)-the book provides believers with a balanced and accessible theology of the body as they seek to glorify God in everything they do.

Review of Sam Allberry, What God Has to Say about Our Bodies: How the Gospel Is Good News for Our Physical Selves. Wheaton, IL: Crossway, 2021.
The book is written in an easy-to-read style and covers many important topics about our body from a biblical perspective. The author uses stories from his own experience or from history and literature to illustrate his point, which makes the book interesting. The book has three main parts: Created Bodies, Broken Bodies and Redeemed Bodies. The book discusses topics including creation, appearance, biological sex and gender, afflictions of the body (pain and sickness), sin and death. It goes on to talk about bodies of redeemed Christians as the temple of the Holy Spirit and how this affects our lives as Christians. The last chapter discusses the glorious resurrection of the body. Crossway has provided a complimentary copy of this book through the Blog Review Program. \\n
