#8 - When JPII Drops the Mic (Theology of the Body)
Show Notes

Join Jack and Lizzie as they bite off way more than they can chew in an unusually theology-heavy podcast looking at Pope John Paul II's Theology of the Body.

What does it mean to be human? Why do we have bodies? What is sexuality really all about? And how does that link to the Trinity, the Church, the Incarnation, and, well basically everything!?

As ever, get in touch on Twitter @CatholicBants, and if you like this stuff, why not do us a sold and give us a nice Five Star review so that we can rise up the charts and more people will listen!

Here's a bit of stuff we talk about during the episode:

Theology of the Body for Beginners (West)

Loads of TOB info, including a link to the full text

Gay Girl, Good God (Jackie Hill Perry)

Mystici Corporis (Encyclical Letter, Pope Pius XII) (Published in 1943, and not 1925 as Jack said on the pod!)

Young Catholic America (Smith et al)
