Six Week High School Study — Virtual

Who Am I? What Am I Called To?

It is clear that there is much confusion about the body in today’s world!  The Theology of the Body, laid out in 1979 over weekly audiences by Pope John Paul II, is the Holy Spirit’s answer to today’s confusion regarding the body and sins against the body which are prevalent in our culture today. (abortion, contraception, gender dysphoria, etc.)

  • A 6 session study of what it means to be a human person made in the image and likeness of God. This study will be based on the writings of John Paul II’s Man and Women He Created Them, other Church documents and encyclicals, Scripture, and writings of the Saints.

  • Students entering 9th grade and up. Parents are welcome to join in as well! Readings and assignments for homeschool students taking the course for high school credit will be sent out ahead of the class.
