Written by Paul, The Book of Ephesians highlights God’s blessings and the steps to fulfilment through God. Paul writes about how a life lived on earth is still lived through the purpose of God, and calls for the uniting of “all things in heaven and on earth” under Christ (1:10).

Divided into 5 chapters, The Book of James leads with the idea that faith is grounded in our physical world. James stands as the half-brother of Christ, and writes his letter as a recipe for those looking to be God’s people, for those looking to stay on path to following God’s word. James urges listeners to trust their faith, and that hardships in their lives are simply tests, and that wealth passes and fades, but not faith.

Western culture hates the fact that we have bodies-from evangelical culture, which insists "you are a soul and have a body," to wellness culture that turns your control over your body into a moral test, to transphobic activism that insists any step taken to change one's body is an immoral act, to the treatment of disabled bodies in a profoundly ableist culture.
