Is the disintegration of the family the root of societal ills? In this compelling episode of the Become Who You Are podcast, we dive into the rich teachings of St. John Paul II's Theology of the Body to uncover how the breakdown of family values contributes to issues like gang violence and a lack of respect for life.

The idea of the home as the "domestic church" takes center stage as we discuss the vital role that marriage and family play in standing against harmful cultural norms. We explore the daily spiritual battles faced by Christians and the importance of striving for holiness  in the face of evil. Through the lens  and the wisdom of St. Pope John Paul II's Audience #93, we reflect on how marriage and family life mirror Christ's redemptive love for the Church, showing that true happiness and peace are found in living out this divine love.
