Our
bodies
hold the answers
to all of life’s questions. Decoding these answers
is at
the heart of John Paul II's Theology Of The Body.
More than
a commentary on human sexuality the Theology Of The Body is
a delivery system for the
sacramental-liturgical world view. With the Theology Of The
Body
as our starting point this program, A Body Of Truth, will reach deep into the sum total of the
Church’s wisdom, the Scriptures, the human experience and
irrefutable science
to put together a vision of the human person; “an adequate
anthropology” as the
late Pope John Paul II himself called it. Welcome to A Body
Of Truth.

love. We all want it, but are much confused about how to find
it
and then hold on to it. This week, Father Loya reveals the
signs

Think
someone can practice smart sex by "doing what comes naturally?"
Think again and listen to this sit-down with Dr. Jennifer
Roback Morse, founder of the Ruth
Institute
and author of the book, Smart
Sex.
Where
do you go when when you have hit bottom? The only place to go
-
up. This week, Father Loya sits down with Deacon Green who
runs
Emmaus Miniseries - an outreach service to male prostitutes who need to
come home.
The
Theology of the Body tells us a lot about the world, but can it even
explain the differences between male and female athletes?
Father
Loya takes up the challenge.
This
week, in a very special ABOT, Father sits down with a victim of

This week

with Salvatore J. Cordileone, Auxiliary Bishop of San Diego, to discuss

the
law of the land.

The Pill
Kills - A Sit Down With Judie
Brown of the American Life League

This week
Father Loya sits down
with Judie
Brown, co-founder and President of the American Life League, and
reveals just how bitter of a pill birth control really is.
For this
week's program we look at why men
visit
prostitutes and/or use pornography. Men, do you think
sexual relations make the man? If you do, you are right -
partially.
For our
second program we continue
to ask the question of who are we, made in the image
of God, male and female?
This week Father Tom explains the language of a man's body - his call
to pour himself out and push back against the forces of the world.
Wives, having a difficult time understanding your
husband? Give
us thirty minutes of your time and we will make understanding him clear
as a bell.
For our first
two programs we will ask and
answer
the question of who are we, made in the image of God, male and
female? Might it be that the aswer to life's most engrossing
questions of
who we are and why we are here might be found, so simply, in
the
shape and function of our bodies? An intriguing proposition
if
not an actual possibility - would you not agree?
