Welcome to part 2 in our series on Couples and Theology of the Body. For the last few months our own Becki Landry has been working with 4 amazing couples in preparation to deliver a couples retreat on Theology of the Body. In the last show we introduced you to the couples as they shared insights about what got them interested in TOB. This show will highlight the information they will cover in the retreat and how each particular topic has made a lasting impact on their lives. If you are anywhere near south central Louisiana you can attend the retreat by contacting Heather Cormier at 318-359-1513. The retreat is scheduled for Feb. 15th from 8:00am to 4:30pm at St. Peter Church in Morrow, LA.

Welcome back to Handbook for Humanity. In this show we will return to the writings of Pope St. John Paul II after several recent episodes that were based on our series, "Dignity of Women". This show will focus on a key questions asked by JP II in his, "Theology of the Body"; Are the hearts of men and women called or accused?

Thank you for spending some of your valuable time with us. We truly appreciate each and every member of our growing audience. This show will bring us to a close of our series titled, "Dignity of Women". Listen in as our team takes a virtual field trip back in time to discuss a document that warned us about what would happen if countries legalized contraception and abortion. The document was misrepresented by many in the Catholic Church when it was released but it played a very significant role in St. John Paul II's Theology of the Body. In this episode we will hear from all our team members including the founder and Executive Director of the DesOrmeaux Foundation, Brenda DesOrmeaux.

This episode is part 3 of our 4 part series on the Dignity of Women. Listen in as our team shares St. John Paul II's suggestions for cultural changes that are necessary to help support women now that abortion on demand is no long the law of the land in all states.

Thanks for joining us for another Handbook for Humanity! Often in our lives God uses "music" to supply an epiphany for us by using simple notes on a page to move the hearts and minds of men and women. Please listen in as our team talks about the gift of music during the holiday season. Our team includes a special guest, Greg Boudreaux, of the Vigil Project who will discuss the unique and memorable traditions of celebrating the Christmas season and how music can be a light to reveal important things to those who truly listen.
