GROWING UP (FULLNESS OF MISSION)
God, Sex and the Meaning of Life
It is both a joy and struggle as we journey through life. And, when we struggle, sometimes we ask ourselves, “Who am I? What is the meaning of life? What is my purpose?” God’s plan for us is stamped right into our bodies and understanding this plan will give us clarity of our lives, relationships and the world around us. Based on Pope John Paul II’s “Theology of the Body,” we are called to a deep understanding and living out what it means to be created male and female in the image and likeness of God. Because “we were meant to live for so much more.”
