Does the body of Christ have a soul?

I spent the weekend at John Knox ranch, at the Main Event for Youth. We talked about community and being the body of Christ. Reflecting on that theme, I think we are all suffering from a poor self image or (at least) placing too much emphasis on what our body "looks like". So, what is the soul? The goal? The thing that illuminates us? This spark of life that comes from somewhere else?

You don't have a soul. You are a Soul. You have a body. -C.S. Lewis
