Fortunately, Jesus modeled through the Incarnation (his birth in Bethlehem) that the earthly and physical life is an important part of our spiritual formation. And vice versa. The Gnostic heresy says that the body is evil and not to be enjoyed. Jesus says that by taking on human flesh, the body is worth redeeming along with the soul. And no where has God rescinded His pronouncement of "it is good" over all of creation! Thanks, Jessica.
