THE 724 Theology of the Body

Through a careful study of the “Theology of the Body” developed by Pope St. John Paul II in Man and Woman He Created Them, this course exams the deep connections between Christian anthropology, sexual ethics, and sacramental spirituality and the significance of embodiment within the Catholic tradition. While addressing specific questions regarding sexuality, love, and marriage and continence for the Kingdom, this course also provides an understanding of how the theology of the body presents a vision the dignity and vocation of the human personal through the lens of salvation history and its culmination in the mystery of redemption in Jesus Christ.
