Mary said, “Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord. May it be done to me according to your word.” Luke 1:38 The Annunciation, 1898 Henry Ossawa Tanner In his Angelus address on Oct. 3, 2010, Pope Benedict XVI said, “Mary is the model of the Christian life” (OR). Memorare Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thineintercession was left unaided. Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my mother; to thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me. Amen.

Week ONE: History & Foundations WHY DID HE WRITE THIS? Week TWO: Encountering Love HOW IS LOVE REVEALED TO US? Week THREE: Redemption of the Heart HOW DO WE GROW IN LOVE? Week FOUR Beauty of Love: Splendor of the Body WHERE IS GOD LEADING US?

Called to Love Review of Week Three readings 1.Which experiences in life serve to remind us that God is the source of reality? 1.Chapter Five defines concupiscence as “grasping”: “the voice whispered in man’s heart that the world is not a gift to be received but a possession to be grasped”? What does this mean? How do we experience concupiscence in this way? How do men and women experience concupiscence differently? How is this evident – and aggravated – in the culture? 2.How is the heart the organ for perceiving the meaning of the body? (111) 1.Is love an irresistible force that justifies everything? Where is this logic promoted in our culture? What is lacking in this idea of love? What problems does this logic cause for people’s expectations of love? 1.JPII talks of three different types of shame: cosmic, immanent, and relational. What is the difference? How have we lost these senses of shame in our culture today? How does this impact our ability to learn the language of the body, of giftedness?

Called to Love Review of Week Three readings 1.As individuals and as a society, in what ways do we reject God as Father? On the contrary, how do we accept God’s Fatherhood? What does it mean to be a child before we can be a parent? (130) 2.How does Mary illuminate the language of the body? ( ) 3.What connotations do the words “vulnerability” and “dependence” have for us? How does Christ transform these words? What part does suffering play in the transformation of these words? 4.Even though the Holy Spirit lives in us as baptized persons, in what ways do we frustrate His work inside of us? How can we allow the Holy Spirit to attune our hearts to the Heart of Jesus? 5.“Christ reopens the path of love, leading us through the adventure of learning to be children, spouses, and parents.” According to Fr. Granados’ text, what is the “natural habitat” of this adventure?

Called to Love Review of Week Three readings 1.Man’s journey to the fullness of love involves a three-stage “ascent” (integrating sensuality, emotions, and the affirmation of the person). What is the fourth-level in the “ascent” of love? 2.Reflect on the following four words (below). What do they mean? What connotations to they have for each of us? In our culture? How does the chapter’s proposals for their meanings differ from your own? VirtueChastity PurityPiety 3.Chapter Seven (quoting Love and Responsibility) explains that “chastity is…above all the ‘yes’ of which certain ‘no’s are the consequence” (157). To what is chastity a “yes”? What are the “no’s” it entails? Why is chastity a foundational virtue for all relationships, especially the relationship between spouses? 4.What is “reverence”? How does it differ from (or rather, complement) “respect”? How can we cultivate an attitude of reverence for the body in ourselves, our families, and our communities? 5.We can only fully affirm – and therefore, fully love – our beloved if we recognize his/her relation to God – that (s)he was created by God “from” and “for” Him, made to be a gift for others and for me. What is in the experience of loving another that teaches us this truth? How does such a recognition change or transform our love?

SIN Concupiscence Shame

ORIGINAL EXPERIENCE: “Life in the S.U.N.” HISTORICAL EXPERIENCE REDEEMED EXPERIENCE: “Life in the SON”

Life in the SON “Redeemer of the Heart” & Redemptive Suffering

GS 22 Christ, the final Adam, by the revelation of the mystery of the Father and His love, fully reveals man to man himself and makes his supreme calling clear. GS 24 This likeness reveals that man, who is the only creature on earth which God willed for itself, cannot fully find himself except through a sincere gift of himself. Gaudium et Spes (1965) How do we understand bothstatements… …not only in light of the filial, nuptial, and fruitful meanings of the body, but also in terms of sacrifice and suffering?

The “Sign” of the Body

Final Essay “Suffering has a special capacity to reveal love.”

QUESTIONS? CtL Readings Compendium Audiences Veritatis Splendor 48 […] The person, including the body, is completely entrusted to himself, and it is in the unity of body and soul that the person is the subject of his own moral acts. […] And since the human person cannot be reduced to a freedom which is self-designing, but entails a particular spiritual and bodily structure, the primordial moral requirement of loving and respecting the person as an end and never as a mere means …
