What is the Theology of the Body?
The physical human body has a specific meaning and is capable of revealing answers regarding fundamental questions about us and our lives:
- Is there a real purpose to life and if so, what is it?
- Why were we created male and female?
- Does it really matter if we are one sex or another?
- Why were man and woman called to communion from the beginning?
- What exactly is “Love”?
- Is it truly possible to be pure of heart?
These questions and many more were answered in Pope John Paul II’s 129 Wednesday audiences given between the years 1979 and 1984. |
This series of four, 2-hour presentations aims to provide an introductory overview of the Theology of the Body. It discusses John Paul II’s revolutionary message on human sexuality and what it means to be human, which is a compassionate, biblical response to today’s sexual confusion and our thirst for meaning and happiness.
