In this collection of Wednesday Angelus audiences, Pope John Paul II explains how sex and marriage need to be seen as physical and spiritual realities. The power of sex and marriage lies in their sacramental connection to the love of God. Men and women have unique roles because they are created to express the Mystery of Love through their very bodies. The actual text of Theology of the Body is quite weighty. We recommend that beginners check out the writings by Christopher West, or the talks by Father Thomas Loya first. But if you're ready for some deep theology, be prepared to be wowed by the beauty of the pope's teachings.
