About this Episode

Questions answered this episode:

  • How can I know if God not only loves me but likes me?
  • My husband and I recently married but I find that I’m resentful and defensive because of things that happened during our 5 years of dating. I continue to grow angrier and resentful as our marriage goes on. Do you have any advice?
  • I’m a young woman and often find myself wanting to be desired by another man. Is looking for affirmation in this way a form of lust?

Ask Christopher West is a weekly podcast in which Theology of the Body Institute President Christopher West and his beloved wife Wendy share their humor and wisdom, answering questions about marriage, relationships, life, and the Catholic faith, all in light of John Paul II’s beautiful teachings on the Theology of the Body.
