The Spirituality of Materiality

One of my favorite professors from Iliff, now teaching at Yale Divinity School, has written an excellent article on valuing the material world without worshiping materialism.

As we approach Holy Week, the incarnation takes on special meaning: Jesus bears witness to God's self-giving love, which does not back down or compromise with fear, and in so doing shows us that God is here with us, that God shares our suffering and weeps with us for the brokenness of our world.
