Today’s topics: Bill Donaghy and the Theology of the Body

Summary of today’s show: The Theology of the Body was the life work of PopeSt. Paul II, a way of summarizing the Church’s teachings for the modern age. Bill Donaghy of the Theology of the Body Institute joins Fr. Chip Hines and Dom Bettinelli to explain what the Theology of the Body is, how it describes how we are both body and soul and how both are vital to our path to holiness; how the theology came to be in the midst of a century in which the body has been denigrated; the importance of Humanae Vitae to St. John Paul’s theology; and how we can live out this teaching in practical ways in our own lives. They also discuss the upcoming Theology of the Body Congress in Philadelphia in July.
