That’s the crazy thing about Christianity — the idea that the finite can contain the infinite. After all, what is the incarnation if not that? So there’s an incredible physicality to the spiritual within the Christian story. There’s not this weird sort of  Greek separation, where there’s a higher spiritual world and a corrupted, bad world of  flesh. It’s all one. Because if God chose to have a body, there’s a way in which spiritual things are revealed in the physical things that are all around us — bread, wine, people, tears, laughter.
