    Mary and the Theology of the Body -- Mary‘s Gifts (S1, episode 8 )

    This episode is an overview of what Theology of the Body is and how it relates to the Blessed Virgin Mary. Mary has been given the same gifts as Adam and Eve. But, unlike our first parents, she surrendered her own gift of free will back to God. Thus, her complete obedience resulted to the reunion of her body and soul with God in heaven. And she is telling all of us that this is also our destiny. Our guest is Mrs. Joy Katigbak, advocate and speaker of Theology of the Body.
