You Are Not An Angel - Why God Gave You a Body

Why did God give us a body? What role do our bodies play in God's plan for us and in our spiritual lives? This course introduces the very basic ideas of Saint Pope John Paul II's "Theology of the Body." It explores the concepts of being created in the image of God, love, and sexuality.

You Are Not An Angel - What Is Love?

If we are to understand how our bodies are part of our call to be images of God's love, we had better know what it really means to love. This module explores the four understandings of love that we get from the ancient Greek tradition.

You Are Not An Angel - Understanding Sexuality

This class will introduce you to the understanding of sexuality that flows from the Church's understanding of the human person as expressed in the Theology of the Body, and show you why sexuality is such an important subject of God's moral law.

Description

Following ancient errors, we sometimes assume that our bodies are less important than our spiritual souls. There is a popular cultural vision that when we die we leave our bodies behind, our spirits sprout wings and a halo and we live among the clouds strumming our harps. But this isn’t what our faith teaches us.

“I believe in the resurrection of the body.” The Creed recalls for us the teachings of Jesus about the resurrection of the body. Human beings are created as an integration of body and spirit. That means that our bodies and our spirits both participate in our sin, and in our redemption.

So what does this mean for our spirituality? What does it mean for our relationship with God?

“You Are Not An Angel – Why God Gave You a Body” explores the purpose for the human body and the role it plays in our walk with Jesus. In this course you’ll learn:

  • What it means to be created in the Image and Likeness of God (and what it doesn’t mean).
  • The purpose of our existence (yes we do know why we’re here).
  • The role our bodies play as Images of God and in the purpose for our existence (turns out, really important ones).
  • What the body is not for and why the moral teaching has so much to say about how to use the body properly.
  • What love is (and why you have to learn Greek to fully understand it).
  • What sexuality is (it’s more than you think it is) and why it is so important.
  • How to use our bodies to give God glory!
