#39. Body & Soul: Finding Freedom Through Whole Body Theology with Lisa Whittle

Lisa Whittle is a Bible teacher and best selling author of nine books and other bible studies. I’ve personally read two of her books, I Want God and The Hard Good. And you might have also heard of her book, Jesus Over Everything — which is also the title of her podcast.
