49:59Now PlayingA listener challenged us with a serious accusation: Have we spent so much time talking about marriage and sexuality that we've lost sight of the Church's call to holiness and celibacy? Rather than dismiss the criticism, we slow down and ask what truth might be hidden within it. Together we wrestle with the reality of lust, the fear many Christians carry about sexuality, and the astonishing claim of St. John Paul II that the human body reveals a "great mystery." If you've ever wondered whether holiness means escaping your humanity, or allowing Christ to redeem it, this conversation is for you.
