In the last episode, we told stories exploring where the gospel meets body image. In today’s episode, Anna and former producer Rachel reflect on things they couldn’t say about body image- including technology’s increasing effects on body image. Anna interviews Dr. Matthew Loftus: family physician at a missions hospital in Chogoria, Kenya about the connection between health and body image. Anna and Matthew explore what conservatives and progressives each get right and wrong about body image and how the way of Jesus is better, and Anna talks with someone around the world to see what they’re doing right now to make an impact on today’s topic
