For we must remember, we are dust and breath, and healing shame will necessarily mean we act differently with our bodies. We will move when before we were literally unable to due to our emotional paralysis. We will speak when before we were silent. We will demonstrate physical agency in the real world, as God did in Jesus by telling people to stretch out their hands (Mark 3:5), take up their mats and walk (John 5:11), and to go and wash (John 9:7). Healing shame is never only an inside job.
