What would it look like if we didn’t separate our physical and spiritual health? That the one who created us designed every part of our bodies to glorify and worship Him. Not just our lips and mouths, but our sight, hearing, taste, touch, and smell. By seeing, listening, feeling, and eating, we can experience God’s fullness. Yet, we were also created to breathe, move, love, create, and even rest. If we truly embraced this concept of incarnational health, then we would live with an embodied faith.
During CMDA’s 2026 Winter Ski Conference, you will have a chance to experience the fullness of God through embodied worship. Whether witnessing the majesty of creation on the snow-capped mountains of Beaver Creek, moving our muscles and joints precisely through treacherous glades, or enjoying sweet and savory delights while fellowshipping with believers, you will have the opportunity to study the Word of God, understand the theological concept of incarnational health, and discuss ways to better engage in embodied worship. Each day, we will delve into topics such as breath, movement, and creativity while understanding God’s design for these areas in our lives. You will have the opportunity to discuss, interact, and learn from one another while worshipping God individually and collectively.
