Introducing The Theology of the Body
Who am I? How should I live?
What will ultimately make me happy? What is love?
What does it mean to be a man or a woman? What can the story of Adam and Eve teach us today?
Why did God give us free will? What “language” does Jesus’ body speak on the cross?
What “languages” can we speak with our bodies?
Questions the Theology of the Body answers:
The sexual revolution left many people starving for authentic love and the fullness of the truth. The Theology of the Body is the answer to that hunger. Thankfully, more and more people are hearing this good news of the Theology of the Body every day.
