This video is one installment of a 4-part series on the Theology of the Body presented by Fr. Mike. For free access to the entire series, please visit www.ascensionpress.com/tobtalk/
If the deepest secret of God is that God is love, and he made you in his image and likeness, then what's the deepest secret about you? You are made for love.
What does it mean to be human? What was God’s original plan for humanity? For relationships? For marriage? For sex? Why is the body important?
In these four lessons, Fr. Mike leans into the teachings of St. John Paul II and Christopher West, unpacking the mysteries of the human heart, the human body, and relationships.
In this first lesson, we learn about the origins of the Theology of the Body, what it means, and why what we do with our bodies matters. We are taken back to the beginning in Genesis Chapters 1-3, the creation of Adam and Eve. Despite their differences as male and female, we discover how they were equal in terms of dignity yet complementary in their differences.
This series is brought to you for free by Fr. Mike's local ministry, bulldogCatholic. This series is worth more than $80, but bulldogCatholic is providing it free of cost to you. Please donate to support their mission! bulldogcatholic.org/seeds-of-...

Perhaps we can all stop bashing other religions. Buddhism points out that clinging is our suffering together with ego, which is true, in Christianity that would perhaps be translated "of the world" or "earthly things". Being a Protestant, but respectful to other religions, I recognize many things that are the same across religions, although they may be described differently. Another thing, why do Catholics believe Peter or Simon is the foundation for Jesus' church? Is his statement on Jesus in Matthew 16:16 "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God" not just the formulation of the cephos/rock/foundation of Jesus' belief? What makes him a pontiff? He seems to be rather unremarkable in the acts of the apostles. If anyone should have qualified as a pope it would have been Paul.

@@wilderness4071 you say one should stop bashing other religions and then proceed to bash the disciple Peter by saying ''He seems to be rather unremarkable in the acts of the apostles". Christ uses the least expected for his glory, he uses the most broken, yes, even the most 'unremarkable' to use your words. Christ's power is revealed in weakness. Lord bless you.

​@@angelosioannides8382 I believe you are mistaken, the bible says the meek will inherit the earth not the weak. It is obvious that Peter did not understand Jesus' teachings and he denies Christ 3 times. If you do not know yourselves, then you are in poverty, and it is you who are that poverty. The kingdom of God is in your midst. To the extent adversity removes your ego then maybe the weak can be led to the light, but how many do not instead chose to die in the streets rather than give up on their ego? Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called the sons of God.

Father, I have been a Christian all my life but have only been learning through Hallow and Ascension about Catholicism this year. I am about to turn 40 and have never been married. This whole sermon was amazing, but towards the end especially made me cry - that Jesus loves me that much, as I am. Thank you and God bless you. I have been keeping you in my prayers as I listen to your minute homilies each day. Rebecca, Australia.

@@JMar-b4d And there is no possibility that the church made no erroneous doctrinal decisions or allowed some paganism to slip in a bit along the way? Do you feel all the current day practices and customs were what the original Jewish Christians (the Apostles etc) engaged in? As a Jew who converted to Christianity, I see some things I’m uncomfortable with in certain Christian sects. I get it there were changes to religious practice documented in the New Testament, but some of the excessive use of images makes me uncomfortable and seem to have developed post New Testament.

⁠@@user-vn7ku1qp5jwhat do you find to be a problem with the Catholic Church? Is it just the creating of icons and images in churches, whether statues or paintings? Who instructed the building of the Ark? ”And thou shalt make two cherubims of gold, of beaten work shalt thou make them, in the two ends of the mercy seat. And make one cherub on the one end, and the other cherub on the other end: even of the mercy seat shall ye make the cherubims on the two ends thereof. And the cherubims shall stretch forth their wings on high, covering the mercy seat with their wings, and their faces shall look one to another; toward the mercy seat shall the faces of the cherubims be.“ ‭‭Exodus‬ ‭25‬:‭18‬-‭20‬ ‭KJV‬‬

​@user-vn7ku1qp5j The remains of an ancient Jewish Synagogue have been found at a site known as Dura-Europos. Inside this Jewish Synagogue, all the walls are covered in frescoes of scenes from the Tanakh, which date to about 250 AD.the golden cherubim from the tabernacle (Exodus 26:1), were situated on the wall facing the worshipers, as opposed to the ones placed sideways or to their back; so whenever the community prayed, knelt, or bowed during worship, it was literally towards (or in the direction of) these representations. (A similar reasoning could be applied to Exodus 25:18-22 with regards to Moses).God approved lions, oxen, and cherubim to be carved in worship place? If God never said that , then how could Jews dare to engrave them (not just paint, but engrave) in their temple walls. (BTW God did not stop them from engraving lions and oxen in their temple walls) Most probably Jews became adamantly against the usage of Icons in worship in the later periods .

I’ve been there, as another person who primarily feels love through physical touch. I had about 5 years where I rarely received a hug, with the exception of a few genuinely caring ones from friends in times of stress. All of a sudden I would rediscover just how transformative it was to get one hug, and I would literally spend weeks hugging a pillow every time I went to sleep, trying to chase that feeling of genuine love. Then God sent me my now fiancé at a time that was perfect, and I don’t have to hug pillows anymore. He never leaves me without a hug long enough to forget what they’re like. So I hope you find someone like that soon, because I believe that feeling loved is genuinely a spiritual need. I hope you dream of Jesus holding you close to His Sacred Heart. Imagine yourself there as often as you can. And I hope you find someone who embraces you so often that you never forget how it feels to be held close to someone’s heart.

Then I listened to the last part and heard the answer to my question. The "lie" is the same now as it was with the first man and woman and all the "ers". My husband and I talked about Eve this morning and her weaknes and ingratitude for paridise🤷😉. Then concluded our discussion as I remembered the words of the "Exultet". "Oh happy fault which won for us so Great a Redeemer." Thank you!🌹

This theology of the body is so incredibly essential and the lack of understanding of this caused great harm to my life, but I am beyond grateful, I am eternally grateful that I heard some of this on youtube during the pandemic when we were all so isolated. The reason, logic, clarity of this purpose for self, relationships and respect for intimacy as God intended, changed my life for the better and helped me to reconcile parts of my life to Christ, and helped me to lay down a lot of burdens and confusion I had carried. It freed me from the painful misunderstanding of the worldly ideals about romance and sex and put all into proper healthy perspective. Humanity is starving to death spiritually from a lack of this most basic understanding of human nature as it should work in relationship to the God that created all life with beautiful purpose.

If it has to happen, Theology of the Body helps with healing divorces, too. I begged the diocese that I lived in for 7 years to help people who struggle with divorce or being widowed. My friends did the same thing. We studied this writing by St. Pope John Paul 2, c.s. Lewis, and lots of others. Some got married again, some made vows of lay consecration, some learned that dating again wasn't the end of the world, but just a new beginning. Thanks Ascension Presents for your ministry.

1 Corinthians 15 KJV ✝️🩸 1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: 1 John 1 KJV 🩸 7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. 1 John 5 KJV ♥️ 13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.

@@johnosumba1980 🤔 Well, if they had read their Bible, they would know that the KJV Bible is the seventh Bible translated into English. Is the Catholic Bible the seventh translation of anything? Psalms 12 KJV 6 The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. 7 Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.

@@johnosumba1980 🩸🤔 One other question. Christians faith is in the blood of Jesus Christ. what is Catholics faith in? Romans 3 KJV 🩸 25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; Romans 5 KJV 🩸 9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.

This is why I still have hope there will be marriage in the resurrection between man and woman. I know the New Testament says we won't be given into marriage but it was also an answer in response to the context of worldly law. He created husband and wife before the fall and this explanation makes perfect sense as to why that wouldn't be done away with later.

Our spouse in heaven is Christ. All souls whether you’re a man or woman are female. Christ marries you. The Bible is about the wedding feast of The Lamb - the marriage between you and Christ.

Thank you very much Fr. Mike! I will be watching the other 3 soon. I hope to see something said about the spirit of God dwelling in us, the Divine revealed by the body, which was alluded to by the first quote of JPII about how the body makes what is invisible visible. Thanks again, excellent video
