As a ministry leader, I’m sure you are aware of the tri-part being of man. We are a spirit, and we possess a soul (mind, will and emotions), and we live in a body. That fact is clearly spelled out in various Scriptures, but most succinctly in 1 Thessalonians 5:23—And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
