Theology of the Body with Christopher West

from Spiritual Wanderlust · host Kelly Deutsch

How might our bodies be an icon of the divine?Might it be possible, that by becoming more embodied--more at home in our skin and sinews--that we might become more divine?Theology of the Body is a revolutionary way of looking at our bodies, our sexuality, and our longings. Christopher West, founder of the Theology of the Body Institute, bestselling author, and serious Bruce Springsteen fan - is the leading teacher on the topic. Today we’ll explore how our existential longings (one might call it our spiritual wanderlust??) intersect with our erotic longings, and how to interpret where they’re leading us.To learn more about Christopher and his work, visit www.tobinstitute.org.
