'We need to treasure male and female bodies as good and loved by God, and we need to do so without assigning sinful meanings to these bodies. I suspect that the seemingly desperate need some Christians seem to have to say what it means to be a man, what it means to be a woman, is born of a quasi-Gnostic refusal to value bodies as such. What if we just let bodies be enough?'
Beth Felker Jones, Faithful, p.34.
