Join Sofia, Adrianna, and Giuli for a discussion about the body. What does it mean that, in Romano Guardini’s words, there is no religion as materialistic as Christianity? How does God’s esteem for our embodiment change our gaze on ourselves and others? Can we learn to affirm Christ in our bodies? What do we do when faced with the fallenness or woundedness of our embodied nature? //

Our media recommendation is Lorenzo Bernini’s sculpture The Ecstasy of St Teresa: www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ecstasy_of_Saint_Teresa​​. And our monthly challenge is to pray in gratitude for the gift of your body. //
