Lesson Vocabulary

  • Theology of the Body
    :
    A series of talks given over many months by Pope St. John Paul II in which he proposed that the human body makes visible the invisible mystery of God and is thus a sign of it. The pope developed this thesis by reflecting on the original state of mankind as revealed to us in the first three chapters of Genesis. (70, 1661)
  • Theological Virtues
    :
    Virtues infused directly into the human soul by God that help human beings relate to God. They are the foundation of Christian moral activity by animating it and giving it its special character. They inform and give life to all other virtues. They are faith, hope, and love (charity). (1840, 1841)
